Answer 1

Your problem lies here:

   ImageIcon image = new ImageIcon("C:/Documents and Settings/user/Desktop/hi/xD/JavaApplication2/image.png");
   JLabel imagelabel = new JLabel(character);

You create an ImageIcon "image" but you create your JLabel with "character".

It should be:

JLabel imagelabel = new JLabel(image);

import javax.awt.*; 
import java.awt.*; 
import java.awt.event*; 

//class name image 
class image { 
    image() 
    //constructor { 
        Frame f=new Frame("Image"); 
        //Frame
        f.setSize(500,500); 
        f.setVisible(true); 
        Panel p =new Panel(); 
        //Panel 
        f.add(p); 
        p.addLayout(null); 
        ImageIcon ii=new ImageIcon("set your image path"); 
        //ImageIcon is used to image Display . 
        Label l =new Label(ii); 
        p.add(ii); 
        p.setBounds(set you bounds); 
        //Like that(20,20,500,40); 
    } 

    public static void main(String [] args) { 
        image obj = new 
    } 
}
