    WPF has a very nice splash screen class exactly for that: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/36418/WPF-Splash-Screen.aspx

    2. In Solution Explorer, select the image.
    3. Add the image file to the WPF Application project. For more information, see How to: Add Existing Items to a Project.
    4. In the Properties window, click the drop-down arrow for the Build Action property.
