Salutations everybody.  I want to load an image into a panel. I have
sub-classed the JPanel class in order to be able to override the pain
method, like this :

public class ImageCanvas
   extends JPanel {
 Image image;
 public ImageCanvas() {
   super();
   this.setBackground(Color.white);
 }
 public void paint(Graphics g) {
     if (image!=null)
     {
       g.drawImage(image, 0, 0, this);
     }
 }
 public void SetImage(Image img)
 {
   image = img;
   int iW = Math.min(image.getWidth(this),this.getWidth());
   int iH = Math.min(image.getHeight(this), this.getHeight());

   this.setSize(iW>>1,iH>>1);
   //this.setSize(image.getWidth(this)>>1,image.getHeight(this)>>1);
   setVisible(true);
   this.repaint();
 }

Now I use this code in order to load my image into a normal jPanel :
(this is the snippet of code that executes loading the image :

         //Display images
         Image img =
Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().createImage(strFilePath);//strFilePath of
course contains the path where the "image.png" is located
         MediaTracker tracker = new MediaTracker(this);
         tracker.addImage(img, 0);
         try
         {
           tracker.waitForAll();
         }
         catch (InterruptedException exI)
         {
           System.out.println("Error while waiting tracker"+
exI.getMessage());
         }
         jCanvas.setMaximumSize(jPanelImg.getSize());
         jCanvas.SetImage(img);
         jPanelImg.revalidate();  //jPanelImg (type = JPanel) contains
jCanvas which is of type                   //ImageCanvas
         jPanelImg.repaint();

However, when I use this program it loads the image all right but the
background is full of trash.  Also if I try to load multiple images
then they all get jumbled together...
How can I clean this up ?

Thanx alot !
