    Welcome to Java Programming Forums.
    What have you tried so far? And from where do you want to pick random image?

    There are two of the many possible strategies:
    1. Rename your images with 0,1,2,3.....
    Generate a random number, open the image against the random number while appening .jpg,.png etc

    2. Create an array with the names of images, each cell holding one image name, generate a random number, open the array[randomnumber] image.

    You know how to write click event for JButton, right? Asuming this, you can do whatever you want to do.
    On click open the dialog.
