the files you'll need to get:
Three .class files and an image work together to form the applet.
Files are FREEWARE, and you can get "goofiles.zip" from: http://www.dustyinfo.com/goo/goofiles.zip [ 17 kb download ]
I'm going to assume you know how to download and unzip zip files.
Keep all three .class files and image in one directory (folder).

you will need an HTML page
Copy the following code with Notepad, insert codebase data, then save with a name of your choice, but with an extension of .html [not .txt].
<html>
<head>
<title>goo HTML example using codebase</title>
</head>
<body>
<center>
<table border=0 width=400 height=300 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0>
<tr>
<td>
<applet code=QGoo.class width=400 height=300 codebase=http://www.where-files-are.com/>
<!-- REMOVE CODEBASE IF YOU WANT TO USE APPLET OFF-LINE -->
<!-- USE CARE TO RETAIN ">" AT END OF CODEBASE LINE -->
<param name="image" value="goophoto300x228.jpg">
<param name="bgcolor" value="#eed2ee">
</applet>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

What can be modified?
Of course your image filename must jive with the image PARAM,
but you can also specify a overall "canvas" size and background color.
What is codebase?
Codebase tells the browser where the applet files are located, but if all files (including the HTML file, .class files, and images) are all together in one folder on your own server or local system, you should not specify CODEBASE. Likewise, if you are going to use the applet off-line, do not use a CODEBASE.
If you are using something like BLOGGER, then yes, you will definitely need to use a codebase address (since applets and images can't be directly stored on the .blogspot server).
Replace ...where-files-are.com/ with address of where files are stored.

embed code in BLOGGER
As you probably know, images and applet files cannot be uploaded and stored directly on the .blogspot server, so you need to store these files with your web hosting service.
Of course, your BLOGGER webpage needs to know where to dial-up the various files which make up an applet, so that is why that address in CODEBASE needs to be used.
The following is the HTML code you would use to embed the applet into BLOGGER. Basically, this snippet is the same as the preceeding full-length HTML code example, but this snippet has an "A HREF=" anchor-tag which dials-up the applet. Reminder; be sure to change the CODEBASE url to match where the .class files, etc., are stored.
<a href="http://www.where-files-are.com/">
<applet code=QGoo.class width=400 height=300 codebase=http://www.where-files-are.com/>

<!-- USE CARE TO RETAIN ">" AT END OF CODEBASE LINE -->

<param name="bgcolor" value="#eed2ee">
</applet>
