Dupe: WPF animated splash screen

I would like to show a splash screen for my WPF application.
what I want to do is to show it while I load dictionary from a file (it takes about 5-6 seconds to load). Is there a way to achieve this in WPF? I would appreciate some tutorial, since this is a little bit more complicated then other questions I posted.

    See WPF 3.5 SP1: Splash Screen

    Or within VS2010 click on the Solution Explorer do Add -> New Item, select WPF from the list of installed templates and Splash Screen should be on the bottom of the list in the middle.

    Note: The splash screen is removed after the constructor and before/when the main window Window_Loaded callback. I moved all of my initialisation into the main window constructor and it works a treat, and is very easy.
