This sounds really wrong.  I just dug my book Swing Hacks out of 
storage, and this is the first example: how to draw an image on a 
JPanel.  They point out you have to use paintComponent() or the children 
inside the panel will not be drawn.

OTOH, maybe that's the problem.  If paint() doesn't draw the children, 
maybe one of the components inside your panel is drawing on top of your 
image.
