The java.awt.MediaTracker class is there for that:

   MediaTracker mt = new MediaTracker(this);
   mt.addImage(image_to_wait_for, 0); // add image with ID 0

    try {
      mt.waitForID(0); // Wait for all images added with ID 0
    } catch (InterruptedException ie) {
      System.out.println("Unable to load image: " + ie.getMessage());
    }
