I thought the icon in that list came from the base64 encoding... no?

As I am running out of my minutes, I would like to use Google Voice for local US calls as it is free.

So I registered on google voice and got a number. Now I have installed "Dial central" and logged in with my GV username and password. It picked up my GV number automatically. I also entered the call back number to my mobile.

So if I dial any US number , it rings on my mobile. That confuses me. If i remove the call back number, I am unable to make any outgoing calls using my data ( like VOIP).

I am sure i am doing something wrong here. Could you please explain me how i can make outbound calls ( just i make free calls from google voice dialer on my browser).

Thanks again.

Have you configured your Google voice settings (using a browser) so that it knows your VOIP phone number?
Assuming you've done that, enter that VOIP phone number as your callback number.

When DC initiates a call, Google Voice will call back the callback number you have entered. From what you have said, that number is currently your mobile number. so it will call your mobile and use up your minutes.

Set up the VOIP number and enjoy free minutes.
