After I upgrade the packages, I don't have a slackcd so what do I do now.. It doesn't really make much sense with the directory, where should this new directory be?
Well Alien Bob is a core slackware team developer so as long as you follow his instructions then you should have no problem. A very quick and dirty way of adding 32bit required packages is to use wget and pkgtools. If you issue this command in a directory as root
This would dump all the packages into said directory, then you could just issue
upgradepkg --reinstall --install-new *.t?z
I wouldn't do this in X. I would just follow Alien Bob's guide but the above should work. Once you have 32bit installed you can just go to www.slackbuilds.org and use the skype package they provide and you should be good to go.
Also unless you have some specific need for 64bit why not just go to 32bit Slackware until your more comfortable with using it?
No the part of the guide I'm at isn't making sense, it says to make a new directory but doesn't specify where, and the massconvert32.sh -i /home/ftp/pub/slackware/slackware-13.0/slackware/ command doesn't work
You must have a 32-bit Slackware package tree available. Those who bought an official Slackware 13.0 DVD can simply use that DVD: it is dual-sided and 32bit Slackware is on one of the sides. For the sake of this example I will assume that you have a local 32bit Slackware directory tree available at ”/home/ftp/pub/slackware/slackware-13.0/slackware/”.
There should be sub-directories called 'a', 'ap', 'd', 'l', 'n', 'x' immediately below this directory. (If you have mounted a Slackware DVD, your directory will probably be ”/media/SlackDVD/slackware/” but I will not use that in the example commands below).

As it seems you're using Slackware-13.1, you should pay attention to install the multilib for 13.1 and not the one for 13.0, otherwise you could break important things.

As you don't have a slackware-cd, you can specify the URL of a slackware mirror using the parameter -u of massconvert32.sh (since 13.1) as below :
Alternatively, you can use the tools I wrote (ie multilibpkg and compat32pkg) to manage (install, check for updates, upgrade, and uninstall)
the multilib. You can look at this recent post for a synthesis about that.
Cheers.

Reason: corrected the url passed to massconvert32.sh as it expects an url that points the slackware's serie (a,ap,d,l,n,x,xap)
bash-4.1# massconvert32.sh -u ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/slackware/slackware-13.1
