How do I resize an image with Java?

I have a bunch of 48x48 images that I need 16x16 versions of, and instead of storing the 16x16 versions, I want to resize them on the fly. My current code looks like this (model.icon() returns the 48x48 image):

Icon icon = model.icon();
Image image = new BufferedImage(icon.getIconWidth(), icon.getIconHeight(), BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
return new ImageIcon(image.getScaledInstance(16, 16, Image.SCALE_AREA_AVERAGING));

Unfortunately, when this code is run, I get a 16x16 black square instead of the image.

You can use this method also for seizing images

 public static void resize(final String inputImagePath, final String outputImagePath, final int scaledWidth, final int scaledHeight) throws IOException {
    final File inputFile = new File(inputImagePath);
    final BufferedImage inputImage = ImageIO.read(inputFile);

    final BufferedImage outputImage = new BufferedImage(scaledWidth, scaledHeight, inputImage.getType());

    final Graphics2D g2d = outputImage.createGraphics();
    g2d.drawImage(inputImage, 0, 0, scaledWidth, scaledHeight, null);
    g2d.dispose();

    final String formatName = outputImagePath.substring(outputImagePath.lastIndexOf(".") + 1);

    ImageIO.write(outputImage, formatName, new File(outputImagePath));
}

Try this.

ImageIcon icon = model.icon();
Image image = new BufferedImage(icon.getIconWidth(), icon.getIconHeight(), BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
image.getGraphics().drawImage(icon.getImage(), 0, 0, 16, 16, null);
return new ImageIcon(image);

You are not putting the Icon into the Image. If icon is an ImageIcon, then you can do:

..
Graphics2D g2 = image.createGraphics();
g2.drawImage(icon.getImage(), 0, 0, 16, 16, null);
g2.dispose();
return new ImageIcon(image);

You need more information than just the Icon reference. You need access to the actual image. You're new image is a black square because you never set the source if the image (i.e. you create a new black image and then scale the empty image).
