    It looks like you're trying to reposition and resize your widgets every 
time the JFrame (or whatever the containing component is) needs to be 
redrawn. This is generally frowned upon, and the recommended practice is to 
use a LayoutManager to position and size the components for you. See this 
tutorial for more details:
