Yeh, this works fine
    /*
     * Show main frame (generated by JBuilder)
     */
    frame.setVisible(true);
    splash.toFront();
    /*
     * Close, hide splash window
     */
    try {
      Thread.sleep(3 * 1000);  /* wait for 3000 ms (= 3 seconds) */
    } catch (InterruptedException iex) {
      /* do nothing */
    }
    splash.setVisible(false);

But I still need to work out why the image isn;t seen on my linux box. I see
from the other groups there mught be a problem loading images into
imagecontrols in the jdk classes for linux. This may be the reason.
