When you run an applet in a browser with the Java plug-in, there is a Sun banner that appears while the applet is loading. Is there any way to get rid of this

No.

or change it to another banner?


Kind of.  You have a tiny applet 'init()' that adds
a label to the applet 'Loading..' (or a small image) then
- kicks off the UI construction in a thread
- flips to the main UI once constructed and ready.

This way, the Java icon appears for a very short time
but quickly changes to 'Loading..', then when the applet
is ready, the UI appears.

There are some tricks to this approach, you would have
to experiment to get the best strategy.
