D/FAROOQ,
hello,
This is swapnil.
pl. find the code for ur query.
note that the sh.gif should be very small gif file in size(i.e. height and width ) in order to see the image position w.r.t. to the text.
.................................................................

import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class test extends JFrame
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
test t=new test();

t.setLocation(200,200);
t.show();
}
JPanel base,canvas,control;
JButton play,imp;
JLabel jl;int x,y;

public test()
{
super("hello Demo");
setSize(300,300);
base=new JPanel();
base.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
Image img=Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage("baby2.jpg");
Graphics g=base.getGraphics();
jl=new JLabel(new ImageIcon("sh.gif"));
JButton jb=new JButton ("hello",new ImageIcon("sh.gif"));
jb.setVerticalTextPosition(SwingConstants.TOP);
jb.setHorizontalTextPosition(SwingConstants.LEFT);
//jl.setBounds(x+20,x+20,100,100);
//addKeyListener(new keylisten());
base.add(jb);
base.add(jl);
//g.drawImage(img,20,20,this);
//setVisible(true);
Container mycontentpane=getContentPane();
mycontentpane.add(base);
}
class keylisten extends KeyAdapter
{
public void keyPressed(KeyEvent ke)
{
int k=ke.getKeyCode();
if(k==37)
{ System.out.println("key pressed on the image");
jl.setBounds(x+5,20,100,100);
x=x+5;
}
}
}
}
