public class SplashScreen
extends javax.swing.JWindow

A simple splash screen which displays an image. The splash screen can be closed by a user mouse click if the closeOnClick field is true. The window will be automatically closed after a certain amount of time defined by the waitTime field.

This code is based on the splash screen described by Tony Colston in the Java World tip 104.
