imageicon

I got the animation to work in my Snake Clone Game. But the problem based on the picture is that the images do not have transparency(notice the white background of the circle pictures. Programming-wise, is there a fix to be able to include transparency to these drawn images? Here's a picture containing my code and the output of the program. P.S. On a side note, I decided to paste the direct link instead of the IMG code because I cannot seem to get it to display on StackOverFlow. I put an exclamation point in the front of the IMG code but it did not work so here's the direct link. As the other

I am trying to write a code that displays an image selected using a JFileChooser into another JFrame .I tried the following code below but only got the following errors. Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException at javax.swing.ImageIcon.<init>(ImageIcon.java:228) at power.<init>(fCGUI.java:53) at fCGUI.main(fCGUI.java:11) Here is the code: import javax.imageio.ImageIO; import javax.swing.*; import java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*; import java.awt.image.BufferedImage; import java.io.File; import java.io.IOException; public class fCGUI { public static void main(String []args)

I only need to draw the text at the horizontal center. trashgod Using a JLabel is less work, but FontMetrics , shown here , will let you manage the geometry directly.

Could anyone explain to me in noob way what the difference is betweeen ImageIcon and Image classes/objects in Java? Thanks tenorsax - support Monica Their nature and application is different. Image is an abstract superclass of all classes that represent graphical images. ImageIcon is an implementation of Icon interface that uses Image as its source. Edit: Think of an Image as something that could be rendered and an ImageIcon as something that will be rendered as an Icon when its paintIcon() method is called. Edit: The links above will take you to the JDK 6 api. These links will take you to the

I am following the zetcode Snake java games tutorial and always get this error: ImageIcon iid = new ImageIcon(this.getClass().getResource("ball.png")); ball = iid.getImage(); Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException at javax.swing.ImageIcon.<init>(Unknown Source) at snake2.Board.<init>(Board.java:52) at snake2.Snake.<init>(Snake.java:10) at snake2.Snake.main(Snake.java:22) I actually just copied and pasted the code to see how it works. They are in the right packages too; but when I try to run it, I always end up with this error. Bozho The image should be in the same package
