Well, the paint method is responsible for painting the child components. You have overidden the paint method, but don't paint the children. In Swing you should override the paintComponent() method not paint.
If you want further information then search the forum using the keywords "+image +background" as this question has been asked over and over again so there are lots of examples already in the forum.
