There's a class JLayer which provides the basics.  You'll have to provide a 
fair amount of code though;  I'm not aware of any class that provides a 
lightbox feature.

There's also a book call Swing Hacks which has some interesting ideas, 
including an animated window similar to what you are asking for.  Still not 
exactly a lightbox however.
