I know, it is simple and most people already knew about how to do this. This is how i add "I am online" button on this blog.

First I need html code for a link. So when someone clicks it it will popup the Yahoo Messenger program.

<a href = 'ymsgr:sendim?onedroider'></a>

onedroider is my id, it is taken from onedroider@yahoo.com

Next is to put image inside the link so there is something to be clicked. This image will represent whether my account is on or not. Again onedroider is my account.

<img src="https://opi.yahoo.com/online?u=onedroider&m=g&t=2" >

Oh.. and that t=2, i can replace it with..

t=0 gives me this kind of look

t=1 gives me this kind of look

t=2 gives me this kind of look

t=3 gives me this kind of look

t=4 gives me this kind of look

t=5 gives me this kind of look

t=6 gives me this kind of look

t=7 gives me this kind of look

t=8 gives me this kind of look

t=9 gives me this kind of look

t=10 gives me this kind of look

And so on..
The html code would look something like this.

<a href = 'ymsgr:sendim?onedroider'>
<img src="https://opi.yahoo.com/online?u=onedroider&m=g&t=2">
</a>

What about if I want to post it to a forum post? well it's quite simple actually, I just need to replace the html code with forum tag replacement. I know, the tag could be different for every forum, but mostly they use [URL][/URL] for link and [IMG][/IMG] for image. So, by following that I will get this code below for my account.
