What would be the most appropriate image type to display a jpg image (loaded from a local folder) on a JPanel?
Cheers.

To add an image to JPanel, the Java Swing framework provides built-in classes such as ImageIO and ImageIcon that you can use to fetch an image. Here, we will add an image to JLabel which will be added to JPanel. It is quite easy, let's see the example.
If you want to add an image, choose the JPictureBox, after that go to Properties and find "icon" property and select an image.
You have to supply to the JLabel an Icon implementation (i.e ImageIcon ). You can do it trough the setIcon method, as in your question, or through the JLabel constructor: Image image=GenerateImage. toImage(true); //this generates an image file ImageIcon icon = new ImageIcon(image); JLabel thumb = new JLabel(); thumb.
ImageIcon image = new ImageIcon("image/pic1.jpg");
JLabel label = new JLabel("", image, JLabel.CENTER);
JPanel panel = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());
panel.add( label, BorderLayout.CENTER );
You could use a javax.swing.ImageIcon and add it to a JLabel using setIcon() method, then add the JLabel to the JPanel.
