Doug, why not simply subclass window and stick a nice graphic in it?  You
wont get the title bar or anything.... err unless it's an unsigned applet of
course.  You will unfortunately suffer from the dreaded: "WARNING APPLET
WINDOW" screaming at you and your users in that case.  But for an
application splash screen, it can make quite a splash :-)
