Well, after reading this Q&A on how to download images using JSoup, I ended up with the code below. By the time you did not specify if you want the images to be downloaded simply in memory or to be saved in a file locally, I implemented the code such that it does both (i.e. it first downloads and then prompts the user to save it if he/she wants).
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.awt.CardLayout;
import java.awt.Dimension;
import java.awt.GridBagLayout;

import javax.swing.ListSelectionModel;
import org.jsoup.Jsoup;
public class Main {
//A JDialog which allows the user to save the downloaded image locally...
private static class ImageDialog extends JDialog {
private final BufferedImage bimg;
private ImageDialog(final Window owner,
final String title,
final JFileChooser sharedChooser,
final BufferedImage bimg) {
super(owner, title, ModalityType.APPLICATION_MODAL);
this.bimg = Objects.requireNonNull(bimg);
final JLabel label = new JLabel(new ImageIcon(bimg), JLabel.CENTER);
final JScrollPane scroll = new JScrollPane(label);
scroll.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(600, 600));
final JList<String> options = new JList<>(ImageIO.getWriterFormatNames());
options.setSelectionMode(ListSelectionModel.SINGLE_SELECTION);
final JButton save = new JButton("Save");
save.addActionListener(e -> {
if (JOptionPane.OK_OPTION == JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(ImageDialog.this, options, "Select image type", JOptionPane.OK_CANCEL_OPTION)) {
final String imageFormat = options.getSelectedValue();
if (imageFormat == null)
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(ImageDialog.this, "You have to select an image type first!");
else if (sharedChooser.showSaveDialog(ImageDialog.this) == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {
final File imagePath = sharedChooser.getSelectedFile();
if (imagePath.exists()) //I would avoid overwriting files.
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(ImageDialog.this, "You cannot overwrite images! Delete them manually first.", "Oups!", JOptionPane.WARNING_MESSAGE);
else {
try {
ImageIO.write(bimg, imageFormat, imagePath);
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(ImageDialog.this, "Saved image successfully under \"" + imagePath + "\".", "Ok", JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
}
catch (final IOException iox) {
iox.printStackTrace();
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(ImageDialog.this, "Failed to save image! " + iox, "Error!", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
}
}
}
}
});
final JPanel contents = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());
contents.add(scroll, BorderLayout.CENTER);
contents.add(save, BorderLayout.PAGE_END);
super.setDefaultCloseOperation(JDialog.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE);

}
}
public static void main(final String[] args) {
//This is where you fill the model:
final DefaultListModel<String> model = new DefaultListModel<>();
model.addElement("https://i.stack.imgur.com/PUMHY.png");

bar.setString("Downloading, please wait...");
bar.setIndeterminate(true);

final JPanel centeredBar = new JPanel(new GridBagLayout());
centeredBar.add(bar);
final JButton button = new JButton("Download");

cards.add(centeredBar, cardProgressBar);
cardl.show(cards, cardList);
final JFrame frame = new JFrame("JList for JSoup");
button.addActionListener(e -> {
cardl.show(cards, cardProgressBar);
new Thread(() -> {
final String imagePath = list.getSelectedValue();
if (imagePath == null)
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(frame, "No image selected!");
else {
try {
//This is the actual downloading you requested:
try (final BufferedInputStream bis = Jsoup.connect(imagePath).ignoreContentType(true).execute().bodyStream()) {
final BufferedImage bimg = ImageIO.read(bis);
new ImageDialog(frame, imagePath, sharedChooser, bimg).setVisible(true);
}

You have to fill your list model with how you showed in your own code. In my example code above, I just fill it with some random value many times.
You can also replace the call Jsoup.connect(imagePath).ignoreContentType(true).execute().bodyStream()
with Jsoup.connect(imagePath).ignoreContentType(true).execute().bodyAsBytes()
which will tolerate files up to 2GB (because I guess you cannot allocate byte arrays larger than Integer.MAX_VALUE
in Java). Let me know if this is what you were looking for.
