Applying Images from Resource Directory in JBuilder 2006

Question

Hi!
I am having a nightmare on that.
I've been trying to create a Choice List with Images, however, JBuilder never finds the images' location.
I've tried creating a resource directory everywhere in my project folder, however, I coulnd't resolve the issue.
The code where I get the error is as follows:         try{
          // create and array of image items
          Image images[] = {Image.createImage("/res/star.png"),
                            Image.createImage("/res/star.png"),
                            Image.createImage("/res/star.png")};
          // Create array of Strings relating to images
          String selections[] = {"Next", "Previous", "New"};
          // create List using arrays, add commands, Listen for events
          lsChoice = new List("Your Option:", List.IMPLICIT, selections, images);
          lsChoice.addCommand(cmExit);
          lsChoice.addCommand(cmAdd);
          lsChoice.setCommandListener(this);
        catch (java.io.IOException e){
          System.out.println("Unable to Find or Read .png file");
          System.out.println("Check if the path to .png file is correct!");
        }Like I said, it kept throwing IOException error regardless of where I've placed the resource directory in my project.
Could anyone help me on that pls? I've wasted so much time on it, and I couldn't go any further with it...
Thank you a lot!

Instead of
Image.createImage("/res/star.png")
use
Image.createImage("/star.png")
