Help in positioning and running to the web

i really have a problem in setting a label, button, or textfield or etc in applets. how can i position in it in the coordinates i want? it's pretty embarrassing since everytime i add a label or a button, it will directly attach it in the center of the applet. setBounds or setLocation doesn't work. it's not like JFrame.
here's my code. pls help tnx. I'm making sa simple paint applet

Code:

Don't even try. Lear how to use layouts correctly: Lesson: Laying Out Components Within a Container (The Java™ Tutorials > Creating a GUI With JFC/Swing)
