How to place image in source folder and use it in Eclipse

I am teaching myself how to use images in Eclipse.

I am trying to get my code implementing images to compile:

    import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import java.io.File;
import javax.imageio.ImageIO;

public class ImageDemo extends Canvas
{
    Image coolFace;

    public ImageDemo() throws Exception
    {
        coolFace = ImageIO.read( new File("jesus.png") );

    }

    public void paint( Graphics g )
    {
        //           Image  , x,  y, this
        g.drawImage(coolFace,100,100,this);

        g.setColor( Color.yellow );
        g.drawOval(88,88,70,25);
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
    {
        JFrame win = new JFrame("Image Demo");
        win.setSize(1024,768);
        win.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        win.add( new ImageDemo() );
        win.setVisible(true);
    }


}

The problem is that I do not know how to get my image in the same source folder of my code in Eclipse.

I think I created one but I do not know how to put an image from my Desktop there.

Any help would be appreciated. Eclipse

Generally eclipse starts jvm with current directory from base of the project so place it on base of the project to read it with existing code
