Image [] tileArray = new Image[50];
tileArray[0] = getImage("filename");
...

//later
g.paintImage(tileArray[0],0,0,null);

Sort of, it is an AWT image, you can define them by declaring

import java.awt.Image;

at the begining of your class where you state all of your imports.

The AWT package comes with all of the standard JDK''s so you can use it and not have to worry about compatability issues with newer java platforms.
