The easiest way to display an image is using a JLabel.  You could
certainly use the code above to load the image, but there is an easier
approach using the ImageIcon class:

   Icon icon = new ImageIcon( "C:\\FILES\\martian_girlfriend.jpg" );
   JLabel label = new JLabel( icon );

Note that this assumes that you want to load the image from a *file*.
If the image is a static part of your application, you will probably
want to store the image along with your code (typically in a jar file),
and then create the Icon using the ImageIcon(URL) constructor.
