J2ME Image not Found

Question

I am working on a menu with just simple image

Image x = Image.createImage("numbers.png");
listMenu.append(counter, x);

it's working well on the emulators with the Micro Edition SDK 3 but when I use the Nokia emulator S40 or deploy to my mobile S60 it's not working, it gave me "Cannot read numbers.png"

any ideas?

Alright smartass, Android won't know where to find your images either unless you give it the right path to where they are. — funkybro, Mar 09 '11 at 18:14
Do you see the numbers.png in the .jar file? If not how do you package your jar files? What is the tool? — Gorkem Ercan, Mar 10 '11 at 07:51
I know that Android use J2ME, so I tagged it in the Question. — AMTourky, Mar 10 '11 at 08:17

I recommend you put your images in a res folder in your MIDlet's root directory. Your createImage() call then becomes:

Image x = Image.createImage("/res/numbers.png");

thx alot, it's working well. put please, can you justify why :) ! – AMTourky Mar 10 '11 at 08:37
Hi user628889! You should upvote as well as saying "thx" in the comments. It works because you're specifying an absolute path to the file, you're telling the handset exactly where to find it. – funkybro Mar 10 '11 at 08:47
