title: Dynamic splash screens for my java application
body: <p>I want to create a splash screen for my Java application. I managed to do this using the NetBeans default tool that allows me to put some image in. But i want to have something "live" there, such as a progress bar showing the status of application load, some dynamic text, etc.</p>
  
  <p>How do I do this? What are the things I need to know to start doing something like this?</p>
