advice on starting out

I am new to java, not new to programming. I have already got some basic things going with java using ImageIcons. Obviously this is a short term solution.

I am looking for some good tutorials for Java2d that include very concise and to the point source. I have searched the web and havn’t found anything, if anyone has some good links it would be greatly appreciated =]

thanks!

Here’s my tutorial:
