Changing icon of JOptionPane

JOptionPane defines icons for different types of messages. I want to use my own icons.

Can I use my own icon specific to my application with JOptionPane?

To change all JOptionPanes try

Code:

ImageIcon icon = yourIcon
UIManager.put(icon, "OptionPane.informationIcon");

Before you create any dialogs.
Other string properties: errorIcon, questionIcon, warningIcon.

Code:

ImageIcon icon = new ImageIcon(new File(imagePath));

See ImageIcon class api Constructors Summary section for other options.
