How do I render nice desktop notifications from Java?

Viewed 9925

I am writing this very basic J2SE application which alerts the user with some info every now and then. Currently I am using the SystemTray and TrayIcon classes to show notifications, but I am not really pleased with that. It does not allow me to tweak the notifications, nor gives them a good look.

So, does anyone know an easy to use library to generate nice notifications?

btw, I will be porting to Linux (Ubuntu) to, but will be using notify-OSD there, which is exactly what I need.
