    Simple Paint Program

    Would it be best to design a simple painting (freedraw now, adding shapes and other features later) program for an applet or an application?

    If I did an applet, I don't want to have to run an html file. Can you set JEditorPane to a html file with your Java applet? That's what I'm trying now, but no luck.

    Also, any links to free draw examples would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    I would do it in an application, if you want to do it as an applet then you must use it within a html file, you cant get around this.

    I enjoyed doing paint programs, its good to get your head around the idea of painting and such, as well as the mouse interface.

    good luck.
