Apparently there's a bit of a problem with the styling here when it handles Skype...

I don't see anywhere to put forum bug reports, so this will do.
 
I'm thinking that the sole reason it's broken is because the icon is missing. At least, that's my deduction from looking at both images. This is because the image has a tooltip text, and when the image is missing, some browsers liek to replace the image with the tooltip text if it can, to at least show what it is. It's long though, which is why it looks weird in my image.

You are exactly correct. All browsers I have personally used replace broken images with their alt/tooltip text. The reason why it is broken is because the functionality of that image was this: it would be green when someone was online, but not if they were not online. The Skype service for this was "mystatus.skype.com" but has since been discontinued as of May 2015. (read here: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA605/how-do-i-set-up-the-skype-button-to-show-my-status-on-the-web-in-skype-for-windows-desktop) It has since been replaced with these: http://www.skype.com/en/developer/create-contactme-buttons/
