So, my problem here is that I want a JPanel on my JFrame to function as a slideshow where 4 different pictures fade in and fade out. I'm using the Scalr library to resize, everything works except with I use run(); As soon as I use that my window won't open and it get stuck with just the text running through. Is there anyway to make this panel have it's own way? Just sitting in the corner and doing his own thing? A basic explanation would be lovely because I'm very new with Threads and everything around that.
Thank you!
