How to save image into resource folder java swing

Question

I am trying to save a image file in a resource folder in netbeans but i am having problem to find the path of resource folder.

My code below:

JFileChooser fileChooser = new JFileChooser();
    FileNameExtensionFilter filter = new FileNameExtensionFilter("*.Images", "jpg", "gif", "png", "jpeg");
    fileChooser.addChoosableFileFilter(filter);
    int result = fileChooser.showSaveDialog(null);
    if (result == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {
        path = fileChooser.getSelectedFile().getAbsolutePath();
        filename = fileChooser.getSelectedFile().getName();
         String fullPath = getClass().getResource("/resource").toString();
                                        System.out.println(fullPath);
        System.out.println(filename);
        System.out.println(path);
        Image img = null;
        try {
            img = ImageIO.read(fileChooser.getSelectedFile());

        } catch (IOException ex) {
            Logger.getLogger(AddItems.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
        }
        ImageIcon image = new ImageIcon(img.getScaledInstance(208, 104, 208),path);

        jlblImage.setIcon(image);

    } else {
        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "No file selected.");
    }
