Hey everyone, I've been having a problem with my code. I'm trying to make a slideshow for a school project. The only problem is that I keep getting the NullPointerException error. If someone could take a look that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
**EDIT** I'm trying to have the background change while the slideshow pictures are coming up on the screen.

I'm looking to make a slideshow. I have 15 pictures that I have on my slideshow so far, but what I really want to do is have the background change as every 5th picture pops up. Here is what I have so far.
