Java Applet: Image loading/displaying help

Any Java programmers, help me. Java is driving me fucking nuts.

I'm trying to upload and display a picture in a java applet, and for some godforsaken reason, I can't get it to work. The code is as follows:

package TestImageLoad;
import java.awt.Graphics;
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;

public class TestImageLoad extends java.applet.Applet {
Image img;

public void init() {
resize(150,150);
img = getImage(getDocumentBase(), "Picture.bmp");
}

public void paint(Graphics g) {
g.drawString("Hello world!", 10, 25);
g.drawImage(img, 10, 40, null);
}
}

The "Hello World!" is displayed, so I know the paint function is called, but either the image is not loading or it's not displaying. The file "Picture.bmp" is located in both the source directory and the one above it (the one that has the .classpath and .project).  I'm using eclipse.

Good god, can someone help me with this.

Read SICP?

Buffer.

The problem isn't conceptual; I've done the same thing I'm trying to do here in other languages.  I'm fairly convinced the problem is syntactical, lying somewhere in my inability to understand exactly what the fuck java is doing in order to figure out why it's not doing what I'm asking.

I only have a vague understanding of what you mean by "buffer".  From what I understand this to mean, I think you are saying to verify (or allow) the image to be uploaded fully before displaying it.  But how to do this is beyond me.

Try compiling outside of Eclipse and see if it works.

Use a PNG instead of BMP

It's not ENTERPRISE enough.

public abstract Image getImage(String filename)
Returns an image which gets pixel data from the specified file, whose format can be either GIF, JPEG or PNG

Code for a new   line so as   I type Unlimited!
