               setSize(300,200);
               setLayout(new BorderLayout());
               //l = new Label(" Solutions Demo");
               //l.setFont(new Font("",1,20));

               //add(l, BorderLayout.WEST);     /* Center the window */     
               JLabel label = new JLabel(new ImageIcon(splashImage));
               add(label, BorderLayout.CENTER);     
               setLocation((screenDim.width - winDim.width) / 2,     (screenDim.height - winDim.height) / 2);     
               setBackground(Color.gray);     
               setVisible(true);
               try
