JAR file with picture

Question

I made a small java program with a Frame showing a small ImageIcon. I'm using IntelliJ to make my programs. When I click on "Run", it shows me the Frame with the picture. Then I made a JAR file out of it, and now it just shows me the Frame but not the Image. What can I do?

You must add the picture to your resources folder, and insert it in your classpath!

Do you mean with "You must add the picture to your resources folder" that i have to create a resource folder and add that picture into there? If so, I did that already. And how can I insert it into my classpath? – Kenta1561 Jun 11 '16 at 17:04

Which detail do you need? – Kenta1561 Jun 11 '16 at 17:16
It depends on the IDE you´re using! check IDE doc. Then you´ll probably have to use: getClass().getResource("/someImage.png"); – PcS Jun 12 '16 at 14:54
