Greetings!

I'm running into an inconsistent problem:  I have a threaded application
that at startup creates a lot of JButton and JToggleButton items and
adds them to a JToolBar.  The buttons are created with ImageIcons.
Periodically my application hangs at startup after loading 12 to 16 of
the images.  I've tried everything I can think of to prevent this w/o
success.  Oh, the images are JPEGs.  If I create the buttons after the
application is up completely (I'm assuming all threads and resources are
in a stable condition), I cannot get it to hang.

On a related note, it seems a waste to use JPEGs as the label.  Anyone
know of a way to use color X bitmap (XPM2) files as the labels?  Maybe I
can avoid the hangup problem if the Image/MediaTracker combo is avoided.

Tom
