          You may want to try ;

          URL fileURL = this.getClass().getResource("img\mypic.gif");

            tx for the reply
            actually I just looked into the seam source how the seam.properties file is read and came up with this solution:

            javax.faces.context.FacesContext facesContext = javax.faces.context.FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
ServletContext servletContext = (ServletContext)facesContext.getExternalContext().getContext();

InputStream is = Resources.getResourceAsStream("img\mypic.gif", servletContext);
