Has anyone ran into the problem of trying to get a GUI component's graphics converted into an array of ints (or, even better, bytes)? 

Yep.  I did a 'screenshot' task for the SaverBeans
(Java screensavers) project recently.

I've tried doing this by having the component paint() its graphics on a java.awt.image.BufferedImage and then using a java.awt.image.PixelGrabber' s getPixels() to extract the array. 

I was first thinking along those lines, but I Googled
the group and noticed the answers for getting an image
of a Java (or any) component, kept being
'Robot.createScreenCapture()'.

For an example, see the version 0.1 source example at this page,
<https://screensavers.dev.java.net/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=13>
though there are also links near the top of the page to the 0.2
version in a zip file.
