I have my own website and I want to show my .mac status(or aim) on my website so people know when to message me. Is there a program that does this?
thanks

Aaron

a quick googling on "aim status" (try it sometime

) revealed this page:

http://www.amon-hen.com/jac/aol.html

however, it doesn't seem to recognize being signed in with iChat. anyone else care to step to the plate?

. I do have an example of what I mean look on the middle top right of this webpage http://www.plasmadesign.co.uk/home.htm . That is what i'm looking for.

that does look like a nice aqua-ish setup. since the source is not too revealing, why not just email the guy and ask directly? and post his answer here too

Hi,

I am the guy that owns PlasmaDesign.co.uk. The AIM status on my homepage is acheived using Konfabulator. There is a widget available for it called iChat Status. All it does is monitor your iChat status and upload a small GIF to your web server every time you change your status. All you need to do is display the GIF on your webpage. Piece of cake!

Hope this helps! Happy new year!

I think your wallpapers/desktop pictures are absolutely incredible...
