Not able to access the image file when running jar file outside Netbeans

lblImage = new javax.swing.JLabel();
lblImage.setIcon(new javax.swing.ImageIcon("E:..path...png"));

I added the file like this. I know it is not accessing the path when running the jar file. Help me how to import a image file to java project in Netbeans.

Create the image folder in the src folder, put the images in the folder and give the relative path for creating the image icon object 

     jLabel1.setIcon(new ImageIcon(getClass().getResource("/image/img1.jpg")));

then rebuild the jar .it will access the images from the jar

Recommended way is place images inside resource folders and use it as below:

jLabel1.setIcon(new ImageIcon(getClass().getResource("/path/to/image.png")));
