  <p>Similar question to this one HAVE been asked before, but this is slightly different.  I want to know if anyone knows how to set the BACKGROUND of a JPanel/JFrame in swing.  I need to place buttons and text fields OVER this image eventually.  All the solutions on here so far have been adding the image to a JPanel which doesn't work when I use GridLayout etc.  </p>
