Java Project Help

[Gambit17]

I'm not exactly sure if this is the correct place to post this bt anyway.

OK. I'm still at school and take I.T as a subject, We code in java and I was given a project to create a java programme it can be anything from a simple game(hangman) to a recording system for a hardware shop.

There are no boundries. It cant be too complex but I dont want it to be too simple(It must atleast have more than on class thoor you know what i mean.)

Using GUI's is encouraged even tho we only Learning them next year.

Does anybody have any Ideas for me or any sites on the web where i could get some ideas from.

Thnks

Here are two ideas:

1. You can check software download sites (download.com, tucows.com ...) see what kind of applications are there and develop a simplified version of them or develop sth that is inspired from them.

2. Check sourceforge.net for open source projects. Find a project just like above and develop a simplified version from scratch.

If you want to develop GUIs I would recommend you to use an IDE like Netbeans. You don't have to know a whole lot of stuff regarding GUI developing when you use something like Netbeans.
All the best with the project.
