Sorry, I was coming at the question from the deployment angle.

To set a frame's icon image, use "this.setIconImage()" or
related Frame image setting methods.

You may use GIFs (16x16, 32x32) for this purpose.  If you
use a 32x32 (pixel sq.) GIF, this will not affect the height
of the title bar (contrary to what has been suggested in 
another message in this newsgroup), but will give you a 
very nice image in the Windows task switcher.
