i was hoping you would take a look at the source for ImageIcon and
figure out how to do this yourself. But anyway...
if you are adamantly opposed to using swing, you can use images in AWT
via the Toolkit class. the getImage method in that class has prototypes:
public abstract Image getImage(String filename);
public abstract Image getImage(URL url);
you can get an Image object that way, but then you need to do something
with the Image.
