Displaying a .gif image and audio in java

Hi all I need a simple working example that shows how to have Java show a .gif image. I have done several searches but everyone over complicates it and makes in not understandable. I just want a super simple way of displaying an image in java.

I also need to know how to play an audio clip through java.

Your help is much appreciated as I have been banging my head for hours now

I did not test this code, but it looks like what you want:[url http://schmidt.devlib.org/java/load-image-toolkit.html]Loading and displaying an image with Toolkit[/url]

Download and install JMF for audio and vedeo clips. JMF is freely available. To display an image which is not a difficult task, just tell where you want to display an image.regards
