How can i use a local image , instead of remote one.

Code :

import java.net.URL;
import javax.imageio.ImageIO;
import javax.swing.ImageIcon;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JMenu;
import javax.swing.JMenuBar;
import javax.swing.JMenuItem;
import javax.swing.SwingConstants;
import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;
 
public class MenuTest {
 
    public static void main(String[] argv) throws Exception {
        // Create the menu bar
        JMenuBar menuBar = new JMenuBar();
 
        // Create a menu
        JMenu menu = new JMenu("File");
        BufferedImage image = ImageIO.read(new URL("http://www.dllc.org/thumbnail.aspx?path=%2FContent%2F10923%2Fthumbnails%2F331827-thumbnail.jpg&width=40&height=40"));
        menu.setHorizontalTextPosition(SwingConstants.CENTER);
        menu.setVerticalTextPosition(SwingConstants.BOTTOM);
        menu.setIcon(new ImageIcon(image));
        menuBar.add(menu);
 
 
 
 
 
         JMenu menu1 = new JMenu("View");
        BufferedImage image1 = ImageIO.read(new URL("http://www.gettyicons.com/free-icons/119/sleek-xp-software/png/48/compupic_48.png"));
        menu1.setHorizontalTextPosition(SwingConstants.CENTER);
        menu1.setVerticalTextPosition(SwingConstants.BOTTOM);
        menu1.setIcon(new ImageIcon(image1));
        menuBar.add(menu1);
 
 
 
 
 
        // Create a menu item
        JMenuItem item = new JMenuItem("Test Item");
        JMenuItem new_item=new JMenuItem("New");
        JMenuItem save=new JMenuItem("Save");
        JMenuItem open=new JMenuItem("Open");
 
        menu.add(new_item);
        menu.add(item);
        menu.add(open);
        menu.add(save);
 
        JFrame frame = new JFrame();
 
        frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
 
        frame.setJMenuBar(menuBar);
        frame.setSize(500, 550);
        frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
        frame.setVisible(true);
 
    }
}
