Inserting an Image into a JList

I am trying to load an Image into a List but I can't seem to get it to work. I have tried 

ImageIcon pic = new ImageIcon("http://i3.ytimg.com/vi/68X8RUxeXeA/default.jpg");
JLabel picLbl = new JLabel(pic);

Object[] lol = {picLbl, "pic", "length"};
list = new JList(lol);
scrollPane.setViewportView(list);
list.setSelectionMode(ListSelectionModel.SINGLE_SELECTION);

That just puts javax.swing.JLabel[,0,0,0x0,invalid,alignmentX=0.0,alignmentY=0.0,border=,flags=8388608,maximumSize=,minimumSize=,preferredSize=,defaultIcon=http://i3.ytimg.com/vi/68X8RUxeXeA/default.jpg,disabledIcon=,horizontalAlignment=CENTER,horizontalTextPosition=TRAILING,iconTextGap=4,labelFor=,text=,verticalAlignment=CENTER,verticalTextPosition=CENTER]

Instead of the actual picture. I have looked around for a while but can't seem to find anything that works. If any of you guys know how to achieve this, any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

A DefaultListCellRenderer is a JLabel, so you can use setIcon() with an ImageIcon. This related example may be a useful starting point.

Jlabels cannot be displayed by JList. Create an ImageIcon from your Image and use that for your array of elements.

If you want to know more about how a JList actually displays elements, read http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/components/list.html#renderer
