Thread: Image not loading

Hello, I'm trying to load an image and display it as JLabels ImageIcon.
This is from a method which loads it(the url is just fine)

try {
			URL url = new URL("http://wiki.sa-mp.com/wiki/Image:Skin_"+skin+".png");
			skinImg = new BufferedImage(200,250,BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
			Graphics2D g = skinImg.createGraphics();
			g.drawImage(ImageIO.read(url), 0,0,200,250,null);
			g.dispose();
		}catch(IOException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		}

And the display part(probably not very important)

JLabel skinImg = new JLabel();
				skinImg.setIcon(new ImageIcon(player.getSkinImage()));

And nothing appers. I have other JLabels just after it, they are shown... But not the image one.

Are you getting any errors? If so, post them. If not, create a runnable example with a common graphic type that we can substitute with our own that shows the problem, and we'll see if we can figure out what you're doing wrong. I'll bet that in the course of creating a simple, runnable example, you'll figure it out.

No errors. And you were wrong, I didn't figure it out.

import java.awt.Graphics2D;
import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.net.URL;
 
import javax.imageio.ImageIO;
import javax.swing.ImageIcon;
import javax.swing.JApplet;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
 
 
 
 
public class Test extends JApplet {
	public void init() {
		JPanel panel = new JPanel();
		int skin = 126;
		BufferedImage skinImg = null;
		try {
			URL url = new URL("http://wiki.sa-mp.com/wiki/Image:Skin_"+skin+".png");
			skinImg = new BufferedImage(200,250,BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
			Graphics2D g = skinImg.createGraphics();
			g.drawImage(ImageIO.read(url), 0,0,200,250,null);
			g.dispose();
		}catch(IOException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		}
		JLabel label = new JLabel();
		label.setIcon(new ImageIcon(skinImg));
		panel.add(label);
		add(panel);
	}
}

Here's a runnable example

Now I feel stupid... Ofcourse thankyou.
But it seems the URL is different for different skins...
So I'll have to load images from my pc. But this is an applet... Could you give me some info on how to do it?
