🚀 go-pugleaf

Here is the initialization code for the applet.:

  //Component initialization
  private void jbInit() throws Exception {
    component1 = Box.createGlue();
    jLabel1.setDebugGraphicsOptions(0);
    jLabel1.setMinimumSize(new Dimension(700, 500));
    jLabel1.setIconTextGap(4);
    jLabel1.setText("");
    Icon icon = new ImageIcon( "sunset.jpg" );
    jLabel1.setIcon(icon);
    xYLayout1.setWidth(800);
    xYLayout1.setHeight(600);
    this.setLayout(xYLayout1);
    this.add(jLabel1,  new XYConstraints(17, 23, 753, 548));
  }

Although I added several jpeg and gif files to the project, and they appear
in the dropdown list for the icon of jLabel1, selecting one of them does
virtually nothing.  So I added two lines of code:

    Icon icon = new ImageIcon( "sunset.jpg" );
    jLabel1.setIcon(icon);

Still no joy.  It seems that no matter what I try, I can't get these images
to display within the applet.  (NB: When the project is done, the image will
need to go into the same jar as the applet.)

What do I need to do to get this working (both from within JBuilder
9(personal) and from within a jar)?

Thanks,

Ted
