tic tac toe game project image icon?

Question

I am making a tic tac toe project, and i am using the 9 buttons and images(Circle.jpg , Cross.jpg). First of all, i wanna clear one thing to you guys, so first i made this game using letter ("X"), ("O"), now i am using images for this game and also it is computer vs player game After running, when i clicked on the button it show's me cross on that button, that's right, and computer automatically puts circle in another button!

The problem is that when I click the Next button, it shows me a cross, which is correct. But the computer does not put circle to block my row.

The question is related to the game logic rather than the GUI. Change the title of the question accordingly. — Extreme Coders, Apr 06 '13 at 02:51
What is the exact problem? Wrong programming logic? Or a technical problem of some sort? Please clarify your exact question and/or problem. — PM 77-1, Apr 06 '13 at 02:53

my programming logic is correct, i am pretty sure..but when i used the images to draw circle and cross, than this problem occurred, — Akshay GOel, Apr 06 '13 at 03:05
is there any way, that i can show you the images...either give me two vote, i will be able to put images. — Akshay GOel, Apr 06 '13 at 03:07

this looks wrong to me

 buttons[1].getText().equals(Image)

you are comparing text with an Image, I doubt that can ever be true.

It should probably be

 buttons[1].getIcon() == Image

that will only work if you load Image once and use it everywhere as you are comparing the object reference.
