So I have to write a program. When the load button is clicked, a file choose should appear. That works. Then once the file is chosen, it should display in on the open area that I have in the gui (upper left corner and middle area). How would I go about displaying that image once I get it loaded?

Here is my code

You could read the image in as an ImageIcon, and pass it to a JLabel using the setIcon() method, and add the JLabel to the JFrame. That would be the easiest way.

Like mac siad, there are a variety of ways. I cover 2 in my Image Manipulation Tutorials: http://www.dreaminco...part-1-loading/

Ok. I still don't get how to exactly get the image into the original JFrame. I added more on to my code. Under the displayGrayScaleImage method, it should display the image in the JFrame. I know how to display it in another new window as you can see it in other methods below it but what do I need to change to get it in the original JFrame?

Sorry for a double post but couldn't edit my last post now.

Here is my updated code parts.

            if(buttonText.equals("Load")){
               chooser = new JFileChooser(); 
               chooser.setCurrentDirectory(new java.io.File("."));
               chooser.setDialogTitle(choosertitle);
               chooser.setAcceptAllFileFilterUsed(true);
               
               if (chooser.showOpenDialog(this) == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) { 
                   //File file = chooser.getSelectedFile(); 
                   fileName = chooser.getSelectedFile().getAbsolutePath();
                
//                 System.out.println("getCurrentDirectory(): " + chooser.getCurrentDirectory());
//                 System.out.println("getSelectedFile() : " + chooser.getSelectedFile());
               			
                   int arr[][] = readImageintoArray(fileName);
                   BufferedImage showImage = displayGrayscaleImage(arr);
                  
			       Container contentPane = getContentPane();
		           showImageLabel = new JLabel(new ImageIcon(showImage));
		           showImageLabel.setBounds(0,0, 500,500);
		           contentPane.add(showImageLabel);

I had it displaying part of the image someway but now I don't have any of the image displayed this way. Any help is very much appreciated.
