How to add pictures to a javaFX 2.0 netbeans project

Question

Hello and thank you for your time. I am new to Netbeans and I am using the Netbeans 7.1 RC1 version of Netbeans. The problem I am running into is that I seem unable to add images to the project. I am designing a web app in JavaFX 2.0 and need a jpg picture for my background. I need to know how to add this picture to the Netbeans file system to be able to call it from my program. Any help is appreciated. Thanks again

Easiest way is to put it directly into src folder, they you would be able to refer to it from your JavaFX application by next code:

ImageView iv = new ImageView(new Image(getClass().getResourceAsStream("/image.png")));

^ You're probably importing Image from awt. Change your import for javafx. – Bruno Canongia Feb 12 '15 at 20:03
