ImageButton b0=new ImageButton(this);
b0.setMaxWidth(100);
b0.setMinimumWidth(100);

b0.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.tattoo0);
tattooListView.addView(b0);

This code helped me to achieve my target.

     ImageButton btn = new ImageButton(getApplicationContext());
     String str=String.format("drawable/theimage");
    int imageResource = getResources().getIdentifier(str, null, getPackageName());

    BitmapDrawable drawable = (BitmapDrawable)getApplicationContext().getResources().getDrawable(imageResource);
            Bitmap bitmap = drawable.getBitmap();
            bitmap = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bitmap, 100, 80, true); 

            btn.setBackgroundColor(80000000);
            btn.setImageBitmap(bitmap);


            btn.setTag(1);

            linearlayoutview.addView(btn);
