1-1 Please post the *real* error message, stack-trace and relevant inputs/state. (I doubt there is such a misspelling.) – Jan 30 '13 at 02:12

An applet operates in a restricted environment (known as a security sandbox) and,unless it is signed, can only load resources from the same location from where it was loaded. The images can be included in the applet jar file. To access these, you could use
Image image = ImageIO.read(MyApplet.class.getResourceAsStream("/images/image.png"));

Applets are by default denied from accessing the client's file I/O. You need to sign your applet or edit the policy files.
