You need to specify more information, if you wish to get a more
accurate answer.

One approach which can be used in games:
You have an array of images, and then your splash method
loops through the images, eg.



Feel free to reply if the above doesn't help

Splashscreens usually == GUI stuff, so I'll move this to the AWT/SWING/SWT/JFace forum where all things GUI are discussed.
