Help with array of Images - is it possible?

Question

Hi, i need to do this thing with tiles in my game such like this:
Image tile[] = new Image[600]
//building map:
for (Y...){
for(X...){
if(tiles[tilenum].equals(null)){
tile = Image.createImage("/"+tileset+"/Tile" + tilenum + ".gif");
tiles[tilenum] = tile;
}else{
tile = tiles[tilenum];
it doesn't work, because Image object has no constructor.. I don't know how to solve it. Can you help me?

Answer 1

- it isn't the problem, *.gif works perfectly. But thanks, your note is helpful, i'll redraw images to png:).
To Daryll.Burke - I think, that my style of writing on this forum wasn't the main problem. If you want to help me, please focus to problem itself and not on details ;). I have rewritten everything, hope that it will be more readable for you.
edit.: I have read my note from yesterday second time, and i think, i wouldn't understand it too, so sorry, man;)
Main problem (or definition of "doesn't work, as you said) is, that every time i try to compare *tile[tilenum]* (where tilenum is from interval <0;600) ) with *null* object, NullPointerException is thrown.
{code}Image tile[] = new Image[600]
//building map:
void tileBuild(...){
for (Y...){
for(X...){
try{
if(tiles[tilenum].equals(null)){
tile = Image.createImage("/"tileset"/Tile" + tilenum + ".gif");
tiles[tilenum] = tile;
}else{
tile = tiles[tilenum];
}catch(Exception ex){
}{code}
I realy don't know how to solve it..
