No - I actually have no idea where that image came from.  :-)  I never even 
really noticed it until just now. It is a bit misleading - we should probably 
remove it.

Thanks.  :-)

Though that particular L&F isn't currently supported, it wouldn't be terribly 
difficult to write. All Pivot components are rendered using Java2D, which is an 
extremely flexible and powerful drawing API. Those tab buttons aren't very 
complex and could be rendered fairly easily.
