I believe you that you're good. But the question is:

- do you know the MVC pattern?

- do you know how to load an paint images?

- do you know how Swing paints components?

You need to know that stuff before you can do what you want. Learn to walk before you run.

The first one you state I am unaware of what it is but the last two I know what they are.I know I should learn to walk before running but its kinda hard when you are self teaching yourself most of this stuff and you don't know were to beggin but you know what you have to do.

By MVC do you mean moving controls?

No, by MVC I mean the model-view-controller pattern, because you'll need that. It's important that you clearly separate the displaying stuff from what you want to display. Otherwise, you'll code yourself into a cul-de-sac. Once you understood that, you should be a little closer to your goal and get an idea of what to do.

The problem with self-teaching is that you're not unlikely to teach yourself the wrong stuff.

Ok reading this did help but I am still stuck that when I try to load the buttons I don't seen them, the disapear behind my images, because they are constantly being loaded.I can post the code if you want, if that would be of help.
