Hello all, I'm working with java images for the first time and having a problem viewing them when the applet loads. If I resize the window they display fine. I feel like this is a common first-timer error. Has anyone else encountered this? Any idea what the fix could be? What I believe to be the pertinent parts of the code are listed below. Thanks for any and all help with this...
