I wanted to know that is it possible to change the background of a frame and put an tiled image as the background instead? If yes, then how??

setBackground() might take an image object as one of it's parameters, but I don't know. If not, in the paint method you could use drawImage().

Hi everyone,

Yes, it is possible to do this.

See the below threads for sample codes and examples

This is another good tiling class

This tiling class extends JPanel but you simply convert it to a JFrame

I hope this helps you
