I think you need to change the postbit_online template to something like:
<smallfont><table style="filter:glow(color=#C4C400, strength=2)">Online</table></smallfont>

...and the postbit_offline template to something like
<smallfont><table>Offline</table></smallfont>

The glow style was copied from the page source here, but I'm guessing as to the exact formatting of the template. You may need to remove the <br> from after the $onlinestatus that you relocated per my earlier directions.
