Image at the top? Are you talking about the application image? Try setIconImage.
To set the location of the tabbed pane, either use setLocation(...) or use some sort of layout manager
to set the location of the Image relative to the tabbed pane, do
Point p = tabbedpane.getLocation();
Image.setLocation(p.x-d,p.y-c);
