In the top left corner of each frame/window is an icon. Is there a way to customize/change this? Also is there a way to customise the background color/image on a frame?

Both these questions are pretty basic "I am learning Swing" questions and have been asked a lot of times. Often you can save yourself some time simply by searching this forum.

Here is but 1 thread found from searching for "Frame Icon". There were 200 results.

Something else that is helpful is glancing through the methods for a particular component in the API.

I don't say this to discourage you from asking questions. I only bring up these points so that you aren't sitting around waiting for people to answer your questions.

I did a few searches and came up with nothing... maybe I was being to specific. I've found setFrameIcon for internal frames but couldn't find anything for JFrames or just windows.

Tick check! Okay, I guess that was just an itch. Oh wait! Just a tiny ad:
