New to NetBeans and just noticed that in the File >> Project Properties >> Application dialog there is a text field labeled Splash Screen that allows you to specify a path to an image that you would like displayed when your program is launching.

I want to customize the way my splash screen works (adding a progress bar, etc.) and would like to code it from the ground up but don't know where to start. What are the best practices for Java/Swing-based splash screens?

Thanks for any and all input!
