Hi, I'd like to enabling the users to choose an avatar from images/avatars directory located to the server. I mean, where do I start?

Thanks, Luca

Hello lramellavotta,

I would recommend saving the images in a database as BLOB.

http://www.mkyong.com/hibernate/hibernate-save-image-into-database

And then it is pretty simple to load the images:

If you need more help or still want to load the images from the directory let me know.

Best Regards,

Darksu

Hey Luca,

I should just fetch your avatars from the server side and then show them in the gui as images.
If you google you can find easlily on how to fetch files from a location.
You can use a grid with custom renderer (like this you can add more avatars to one row) and a button under the image to choose it, or add an event on the image itself.

Personally I will not show what's on the server side itself like folders,...

Is this enough or do you need more exact details?

Chill.
