    The main question is that "netbeans.png" is a specification on the file-system and, more important, it's a relative specification .... relative to the "current" directory.
    What is your current directory when you launch your application-in-jar? I can't know .... it depends. Depends on how/from where you start the java launcher (java.exe o whatever is in other O.S.).

    To be clear: your jar is for example in C:\MyProjects\myapp.jar

    From command prompt you can do:
    C:\MyProjects>java -jar myapp.jar
    or
    C:\>java -jar MyProjects\myapp.jar

    Both commands (in blue) correctly start your jar .... but the "current" directory is different ("C:\MyProjects" the first, "C:\" the second time).

    If your image "belongs" to your application, you should load it as a "resource" using getResource/getResourceAsStream of java.lang.Class.
    If "netbeans.png" is in the same package of MyPanel, you can do:

    ImageIcon ii = new ImageIcon(MyPanel.class.getResource("netbeans.png"));

    And it works even if netbeans.png is into the jar.


    Final note: don't load images (any resource in general) in a paint/paintComponent method.
