Yep. The solution is to use double buffering, ie. draw onto an image and
then when all your drawing is complete use the paint method to draw this
image on the applet's graphics. Some nice chap has done this for ppl to
use, it's called NoFlickerApplet and can be found quite easily (I think
Gamelan must have it somewhere).
