Is there any way using html and/or JS to link an image so that it makes a phone call. Similar to the mailto: links. This would just make life a lot easier if this was possible. Say if a person had skype, could a button then open skype for them and call a number?
Thanks in advance

In our email builder, you can add mailto: (email), tel: (telephone), and sms: (SMS) to different elements of your email design, making it easy for your subscribers to contact you directly.
Href=tel: creates the call link. This tells the browser how to use the number. “Tel: 123-456-7890 “creates the HTML phone number. The number within the quotes is the number it will call.
When clicked, click-to-call buttons connect visitors on mobile devices with a specific phone number. Mailto links open the compose window of a visitor's default email program. They can be constructed to create an email with a specific recipient, subject line, and email body.
Firstly, mailto links make it hard to copy the address, for example if you want to share the email address with someone else. Secondly, some users use more than one mail app, and the link just uses whichever has been setup as the default, without giving them the option to use the other.
In the Link URL field, enter mailto:[email protected], then replace [email protected] with the recipient's email address. You can modify any mailto link to generate an email with a specific subject line and body. The basic structure of a mailto link with a subject line and body looks like this:
Their UI experimentation ended up using a mailto: link, but putting the entire email address as the link which makes it especially obvious what the link does, while also offering a Copy button for a little UX bonus. tel: links are weirder in the sense that a good many devices looking at them don’t have any phone-calling functionality.
