public Image  images[] = new Image[20];

    for(i=0; i<10; i++){
images[i]=new Image(getClass().getResource("/images/"+i+".jpg"));
        }

I am trying to add images to array but it gives the error Cannot instantiate the type Image j

What can be the reason?

What kind of Image are we talking about? Java's AWT Image? Or do you intend to use Slick's Image perhaps? –  Basaa Sep 23 '13 at 13:46

Use a BufferedImage and read an image file by ImageIO.read(file). Then you create a raster variable as a picture variable then get pixels from buffered image into that raster or you can directly get the rgb values from buffered image.

 String name="C:\\JoclLwjgl\\rtest\\bubu.png"
 static BufferedImage bi;
 f=new File(name);

    try {
        bi=ImageIO.read(f);
    } catch (IOException e1) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e1.printStackTrace();
    }

 Raster pic=bi.getData(new Rectangle(0,0,bi.getWidth(),bi.getHeight()));

 or

 int zz=bi.getRGB(j, i); 
 (float)(zz>>16)&0xff) is "red" component as "float"
