Quick clarification for : if your intent is a working “chat on Yahoo Messenger” button, Yahoo Messenger was officially retired on July 17, 2018, so protocol links and live chat connections are no longer reliable. If you only want a Yahoo-styled badge (different look from your example) you can still source graphics — treat them as decorative/contact indicators rather than links to an active IM service. (axios.com)

For finding alternatives, follow ’s idea to browse icon-archive sites and consider the pack-style libraries hinted at. IconArchive is great for quick searches across many PNG/SVG sets, and Iconshock offers themed packs and vector sources if you want a consistent visual style across icons. When searching, use keywords like “yahoo”, “chat”, “messenger”, or “chat bubble” and filter for SVG/vector if you need crisp scaling. (iconarchive.com)

A licensing heads-up: free downloads often require attribution; premium subscriptions or paid licenses remove attribution but add other terms. Read each provider’s license—Flaticon documents attribution vs premium rules, and Iconfinder explains Basic vs Extended licenses (and notes limits such as “don’t use icons as logos”). If the icon will appear in a commercial product, buy the appropriate license. (flaticon.com)

Quick implementation tips: prefer SVG for scalability and easy recolor; host files locally if the license allows; include accessible text (alt and aria-label) and set explicit width/height to avoid layout shifts. If you must keep a legacy Yahoo protocol link for archival pages, the pattern looks like this (replace username — it probably won’t open a client now):

<a href="ymsgr:sendIM?username" title="Chat on Yahoo Messenger" aria-label="Chat on Yahoo Messenger">
  <img src="/assets/icons/yahoo-chat.svg" alt="Chat on Yahoo Messenger" width="32" height="32">
</a>

Short summary: ’s archive approach is the right first step; ’s Iconshock tip is useful for set coherence; pick SVGs where possible and always confirm the icon license before publishing.
