How would I go about changing the Look and Feel of a JFrame and Swing components to custom pictures and what not? Is there a set of methods and API's or do I need to just make a custom JFrame that allows me to customize my JFrame further?
I'm trying to get something that looks like the World of Warcraft launcher or League of Legends launcher( best examples i've seen with custom everything xD). I'm pretty new to GUIs.

Not exactly an answer to the question, but since you're just staring with Java GUI, I'd recommend diving right into JavaFX -- a modern Java UI toolkit.
Please be sure to start with JavaFX 2.x -- not JavaFX 1.x, which is basically deprecated.
