[OpenID] Quick question about the Yahoo buttons

I like the idea of having larger provider icons on my consumer site
because it helps people realize they can use OpenID even when they have
no idea what it is. But what confuses the daylights out of me is where
that button is supposed to go. Yahoo has this page to "grab a button"
with no actual information about where the hell the link should point:
http://developer.yahoo.com/openid/loginbuttons.html
Am I supposed to just point them at the existing OpenID form when they
click this or is there some more hand-holding process that Yahoo offers
given that their users have to enable their accounts? I realize there
is potentially some session negotiation that has to occur with my
server, just not sure how that's supposed to go and what URLs it would
use...
Confused but not dumb,
