I guess the canvas is the only option, if you must have the
background image. But it probably is not as messy as you might think.

An alert would also work, but this is not quite what you want. But
it lets you display a little bit of text with an image (I think the
image will be above the text .. not sure tho).

Yes, but I have never used progress bars .. A wild guess would be to
call Thread.yield (); or maybe Thread.sleep (10); to give control to the
JVM .. maybe then it will display the progress bar thing. Worth a try.
