Java applet 'notinited'

I am receiving an error when my applet is loading

Java applet notinited

Using comments i have traced the error to:

Graphics tempGraph;

Image[] grid =new grid[someNumber];

for(int d = 0; d<someNumber; d++)

{

grid[d] = createImage(200,100);

//the following line is where the problem is...

tempGraph = grid[d].getGraphics();

}

Any ideas?>
