title: How to create a Java game start screen?
body: <p>I have just finished a a game applet. Now I want to create a start screen that has a background image, and a start game button. When the user clicks the start button I want to clear the start game screen and I want the game background and all other game component to be painted to the screen. Additionally, I want the start game button to be an image that is clickable. My problem is how do you paint one screen not both in the paint() method.</p>
  
  <p>How would i do this? Thanks in advance. </p>
