I think there are int32 values that can't be represented in a float32, e.g. 16,777,217 (and 9,007,199,254,740,993 for int64/float64)

The difference is that javax.swing.JOptionPane is a class whereas image/color is a package containing functions and types. x := color.RGBA{255, 255, 255, 0} is instantiating an RGBA type from the image/color package
