    Driver1.setBackground (Color.green);
    JLabel Header1 = new JLabel ("Name: " + fName + " " + lName);
    JLabel MPG = new JLabel ("MPG: " + fmt.format(mpg));
    JLabel FPM = new JLabel ("Fares per mile: " + cfmt.format(fpm));
    JLabel GPPM = new JLabel ("Gas paid per mile: " + cfmt.format(gppm));
    JLabel PROFIT = new JLabel ("Total Profit: " + cfmt.format(profit));

    Default Re: Inserting Image Help

    Try using a different layout or combinations of them. For example, BoxLayout should let you do this.
    JPanel vertPanel = new JPanel();
    vertPanel.setLayout(new BoxLayout(vertPanel, BoxLayout.PAGE_AXIS));
    vertPanel.add(imagePanel);
    vertPanel.add(otherPanel);
     
    .....
    mainPanel.add(vertPanel);
