    should be 
    if(e.getSource().equals(next)) {

} else if (e.getSource().equals(back)) {

}

    just in case you didnt know or dont understand why you should use equals() . "==" compares what the variable is actually pointing to. So for primative types like int,doubles,boolean == is grand as they point to their values but for object types it would be pointing to their references rather then their content.
    Its an easy mistake to make as its still valid code.

    thanks for that, i didnt actually know that, i changed the code it didnt seem to fix the problem.
    i called the repaint method in start and that seems to have done the trick
