I have been trying to implement a basic game. However, i'm relatively new to
java and not sure the best way to go about it.
I am going to have a background image as the board and then draw the counters on top of this image to represent their position. When moves occur I will make the movements animated rather than jumping from position 1 --> postion 2.
What is the best way to do this? I initially had a JFrame with the background image handled by a JFrame. However, I couldn't then get the counters to draw on the frame.
Thankyou in advance for any support/ help you might be able to supply.
