If you want to have animations in Swing, the recommended class to use is the javax.swing.Timer . This class allows you to perform operations on the Event Dispatch Thread at regular intervals.

• The Swing Timer tutorial
• An animation example posted here on SO (which is linked in the Swing wiki here on SO btw)
