Explanation / Answer

1. One way of doig it is resize the "logo.png" resource where it is stored .

If it is not available then you may resize it within the code , except that icon cannot be made final

2. Add an import : import java.awt.Image; // For resize function

and change : final ImageIcon icon= new ImageIcon("logo.png"); to the following

ImageIcon ic = new ImageIcon("logo.png"); // Load in temproary variable

Image image = ic.getImage().getScaledInstance(50, 50, java.awt.Image.SCALE_SMOOTH); // Transform // Here the numbers 50 , 50 decide the size and can be increased or decreased as per your need

final ImageIcon icon = new ImageIcon(image); // Load to icon variable
