Hello, Does anybody know how to customize the icon on JFrame? The default icon is the Java cup on the upper left corner of the JFrame. I want to change it into my own icon. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Cindy

Hi, Use the setImageIcon(Image img) of java.awt.Frame to set your icon in the titlebar. Eg: If u r using a Properties file, u may do something like this setIconImage(Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().createImage(properties.getProperty("ICON_IMAGEFILE")));

Thank you. It works and now I have another question. Do you know if I use imagefile .ico instead of .gif or .jpg? is anyway to accomplish this?
Thank you again, Cindy

Normally java can only read a .gif or a .jpg image. For some reason, lots of people have been asking about reading .ico files recently, and I finally found a way to read .ico files... Sun has a image I/O library called JIMI ) for managing images.
