I've been trying to create a splash screen for my
application all day and am not having any luck with it
displaying my graphics. I've tried everything off of sun's
site, tutorials and asked friends.

Are there known problems with displaying graphics on linux
with jdk1.2prev2 glibc2.1 version?

I will attach my two classes. If anyone could take a look
that would be great.

I have tried using JLabels, Images, ImageIcons.. and nothing
seems to work.
