Essentially skinning my app..

I'm designing an MP3 player program, and I'm to the point that I want a
better GUI. Using Images and Graphics, I've been able to draw what look
like buttons on my JDialog. However, I can't add a MouseListener to the
Images. A friend suggested putting the Images into a JComponent, but I
can't manage that either.

I'm sure the solution is obvious, but it continues to escape me. I need
some way to add a MouseListener to my Image, even if I have to get a
little creative and put the Image in something else.

Thanks in advance for the help.
