It's not a magical license to eat as much as you want! It's still very easy to eat a surplus of calories during the day even if you're doing intermittent fasting.
I currently eat during an 8-9 hour window (12pm-9pm) but mostly because it's much easier for me to stay satiated over the whole day when eating like this and keep my total calories down.
Use something like MyFitnessPal to track your calories, set a calorie goal for each day (below your maintenance level) and you will be amazed how easy it is to lose weight (or gain weight if that's your goal).
Also, there's nothing wrong with skipping breakfast.
Skipping or eating light for breakfast has worked miracles for me. While agreed that it is definitely not a license to eat however much you want, there are some convincing arguments that eating in this pattern (particularly delaying carbohydrate intake until the evening hours) creates metabolic inefficiencies that cause more of the consumed energy from the diet to be "wasted", perhaps giving a person a couple hundred calories of leeway in their diet and still see effective weight control. Check out some the work of John Keifer, his opinion on this is fascinating, particularly his rants on his podcast: http://body.io/category/podcast/
