Hi Guys

Hello Ciwan,

Take a look at this tutorial:

How to Use Icons (The Java™ Tutorials > Creating a GUI with JFC/Swing > Using Swing Components)

This may also be of use to you:

All that code just to display an image onto the GUI !!!

Thats Java Swing for you.. It takes a lot of code to do simple things.

Hi all, i havent been here for a while (due to an argument with the admin here) but the code below is all you need to display an image:

Quote:

cb2.setBanner("http://www.engineeringserver.com/Software/banner.gif");
getContentPane().add(cb2);
cb2.setBounds(7, 280, 469, 63);

I've also written an updated version with new features such as adding an image to a default position on your GUI so you don't need to write cb.setBounds(); but i haven't linked the updated files here.
