I have a problem with Skype. When I try to set an avatar, it crashes when I click on a photo, through the selector.

I'm running Skype 4.0.0.8 on 12.04. Is there anyway to fix this?

To install Skype the correct way:

sudo apt-add-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner"
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install skype
