A very silly way of doing it but it solves the problem you have :smile:

ImageIcon ii= new ImageIcon("split.jpg");
split=new JRadioButton("Splitter",ii,true);
split.setBackground(Color.black);
ImageIcon ij= new ImageIcon("zip.jpg");
zip=new JRadioButton("Zipper",ij,false);
zip.setBackground(Color.black);
ImageIcon ik= new ImageIcon("rename.jpg");
Rename=new JRadioButton("Rename all",ik,false);
Rename.setBackground(Color.black);
ImageIcon il= new ImageIcon("copymail.jpg");
Copymail=new JRadioButton("Copy Mail",il,false);
Copymail.setBackground(Color.black);
ImageIcon im= new ImageIcon("download.jpg");
download=new JRadioButton("Download",im,false);
download.setBackground(Color.black);
