Hello
I want to create a JPanel with a background image, and on that background image I want to arrange my buttons and text feilds etc in a border layout. Is this possibe? Having real trouble accomplishing this. Any assistence will be appreciated. I am using Java 2 at the moment. Thanks in advance

import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
 
public class GUI2 extends JFrame
{
	ImageIcon icon;
	Image image;
 
	public GUI2()
	{
		icon = new ImageIcon("background.jpg");
		JPanel panel = new JPanel()
		{			
			protected void paintComponent(Graphics g)
			{
				//  Dispaly image at full size
				g.drawImage(icon.getImage(), 0, 0, null); 	
				super.paintComponent(g);
			}
		};
		panel.setOpaque( false );
		panel.setPreferredSize( new Dimension(400, 400) );	
		getContentPane().add( panel ); 
 		panel.setLayout(new BorderLayout()); 		
 		JPanel southPanel = new JPanel();
 		JButton button = new JButton( "Hello" );
 		southPanel.setOpaque(true);
 		button.setOpaque(true);
 		southPanel.add(button); 		
 		add(southPanel, BorderLayout.NORTH); 	
 	//	southPanel.add(button);
 	//	southPanel.add(b);		
	} 
	public static void main(String [] args)
	{
		GUI2 frame = new GUI2();
		frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
		frame.setSize(450,  250);
		frame.setLocationRelativeTo( null );
		frame.setVisible(true);
	}
