Java Swing ImageIcon, where to put images?

Question

I\'m following this tutorial for java swing games: http://zetcode.com/tutorials/javagamestutorial/movingsprites/

At this point:

ImageIcon ii = new Im         


        

Answer 1

new ImageIcon(this.getClass().getResource());

This means that the image is present in the directory where the underlying class file is existing. So, you should save your image in the same directory where the class file of current java file will reside.
