      public void run() {
        try {
          JFrame f = new JFrame();
          f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

          BufferedImage image = ImageIO.read(new URL("http://www.java2s.com/style/download.png"));
          f.getContentPane().add(new JLabel(new ImageIcon(dye(image, new Color(255, 0, 0, 128)))));

  private static BufferedImage dye(BufferedImage image, Color color) {
    int w = image.getWidth();
    int h = image.getHeight();
    BufferedImage dyed = new BufferedImage(w, h, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
    Graphics2D g = dyed.createGraphics();
    g.drawImage(image, 0, 0, null);
    g.setComposite(AlphaComposite.SrcAtop);
    g.setColor(color);
    g.fillRect(0, 0, w, h);
    g.dispose();
