ImageIcon in JLabel not working

Question

I've been struggling with this problem for weeks to no avail. Other Java forums have not been able to help me with this so I'm hoping I can find someone here with new eyes. I have a JFrame in which, among other things, I am trying to insert an image. I have put together an SSCCE that reproduces the problem.

    public class ImageTest {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
    SplashScreen.ShowWindow();
   }
    }

    public class SplashScreen {

private JFrame frmKcbsEventsSearch;

public SplashScreen() {
    initialize();
}

public static void ShowWindow() {
    EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
        public void run() {
            try {
                SplashScreen window = new SplashScreen();
                window.frmKcbsEventsSearch.setVisible(true);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
    });
}

public void initialize() {
    frmKcbsEventsSearch=new JFrame();
    frmKcbsEventsSearch.getContentPane().setBounds(new Rectangle(200, 200, 520, 450));
    frmKcbsEventsSearch.getContentPane().setFont(new Font("Times New Roman", Font.PLAIN, 16));
    frmKcbsEventsSearch.setTitle("KCBS Events Search");
    frmKcbsEventsSearch.setBounds(200,200,520,450);
    frmKcbsEventsSearch.getContentPane().setLayout(new FlowLayout());
    frmKcbsEventsSearch.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE);
    JLabel logo;
    java.net.URL logoURL=getClass().getResource("KCBSLogo.jpg");
    if (logoURL!=null) {
        try {
            logo = new JLabel();
            logo.setIcon(new ImageIcon(logoURL));
        }
        catch (Exception e) {
            logo = new JLabel("KCBS Logo");
        }
    }
    else {
        logo = new JLabel("KCBS Logo missing");
    }
    logo.setHorizontalAlignment(SwingConstants.CENTER);
    logo.setVerticalAlignment(SwingConstants.CENTER);
    frmKcbsEventsSearch.getContentPane().add(logo);
}
    }

It has been mentioned elsewhere that the layout is important to make this work. I've not had much luck getting layout managers to do what I want but in this case I just want to get the image displayed. Once I have that I'll work through getting it formatted the way I want.

This code works perfectly fine! I changed the KCBSLogo.jpg to a source that I had named tile.png. When I ran it displayed perfectly. Make sure the KCBSLogo.jpg is in your SRC folder in the project.

As you can see the tile image was shown.
