Problem in loading image in WPF

Question

Hi Iam loading image at runtime.I have the problem where i have to place the image in folder.Actually i put it in folder named as Image.But it shows the error that it can not find image in folder ...bin\debug\HH.bmp.

So i pasted it in debug folder and works fine. But when i take EXE out of Debug folder and when i run it,it does not work. Why? Then how can i add image in such case?

Is there any way to add image in resource file, Like in MFC..

src1 = @"HH.bmp";
Img1.Source = new ImageSourceConverter().ConvertFromString(src1 ) as ImageSource;

This is very similar to another question. Check out http://stackoverflow.com/questions/347614/wpf-image-resources

EDIT

<Image Source="../Images/icon.png" />

If you run this application will search the image in the current Assembly directory. just try like this <Image source="/yournamespace;component/Images/Close.png"> there should be an image folder with close.png in the solution. No need of the image or image folder in the debug folder.
