Image has the method public Image getScaledInstance(int width, int height, int hints) you can use to resize your menu icon.

I guess you could do it some other way, but this might be worth a try - an AWT idea; resize the image before setting it as the menu item icon:

// myIcon is your image icon
imageToolkit = java.awt.Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit;
iconImage = imageToolkit.createImage(myIcon);
iconImage = iconImage.getScaledInstance(32,32,iconImage.SCALE_SMOOTH);
// set this icon for the menu
