    Short answer, yes.

    Longer answer, yes, I have the following code in my ImageUtility class.

        public static BufferedImage resizeImage(final Image image, int width, int height) {
            final BufferedImage bufferedImage = new BufferedImage(width, height, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
            final Graphics2D graphics2D = bufferedImage.createGraphics();
            graphics2D.setComposite(AlphaComposite.Src);
            graphics2D.drawImage(image, 0, 0, width, height, null);
            graphics2D.dispose();
     
            return bufferedImage;
        }

    // Json

    I use this method.
    public static BufferedImage resizeImage(final Image image, int width, int height) {
    final BufferedImage bufferedImage = new BufferedImage(width, height, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
    final Graphics2D graphics2D = bufferedImage.createGraphics();
    graphics2D.setComposite(AlphaComposite.Src);
    graphics2D.drawImage(image, 0, 0, width, height, null);
    graphics2D.dispose();
    return bufferedImage;
    }

    Also i called this method when loading the image like,

    Image imag = ((ImageIcon)ImageStore.applet_loadedImages.get("bg-2.png")).getImage();
    Dimension d = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize();
    int width =(int) d.getWidth();
    int height =(int) d.getHeight();
    resizeImage(imag,width,height);

    But its not resizing the image.In my code image is in label.Is anything wrong in my code?

    The resizeImage method will return you a new image which you will have to use, it doesn't change your current image.

    Image imag = ((ImageIcon)ImageStore.applet_loadedImages.get("bg-2.png")).getImage();
    Dimension d = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize();
    int width =(int) d.getWidth();
    int height =(int) d.getHeight();
    final BufferedImage newImage = resizeImage(imag,width,height);

    Now use the newImage variable.

    // Json
