I think Grid layout would be better

An example of grid layout: http://leepoint.net/notes-java/GUI/layouts/30gridlayout.html
You can use a JLabel to add the images.
You can create an array of JLabels and add each one to one cell of the panel. If you need to modify the picture you just modify the Jlabel picture.
