Making an isometric game...how do i set up the graphics?

[Mark]

Hey everyone, hows it going? I've just been hitting a couple problems with an isometric game of mine.

I decided to write this thing in java. Its a tile based game, where you move your character around (much like graal, or tibia, if anyone has ever heard of tehm), but I want to have a feature where you can sort of rotate the game box, so that people can just click rotate x degrees. And I am wondering the best way to set this up?

Im using the latest JDK, and im trying to figure out how i can set it up. Im gonna use tiles, but some will overlap.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks
