As others have pointed out already, this is _not_ possible.

The whole point of the default image is to make it look like your app is 
launching quickly. For some apps, this is simply a blank background image.  For 
my own app, this also includes buttons and other controls that are void of text.

Keep in mind that with fast-app switching on iOS4, your app may come back into 
view exactly how it was when it was suspended.  Note that is only a _may_ and 
not a guarantee.  Should the OS have to terminate your app (to free up 
resources), the next time your app is launched, it will display the original 
default image (since it's once more doing a normal launch).

I highly recommend viewing Sessions 105 and 109 from WWDC 2010 (Adopting 
Multitasking Parts 1 and 2).  They list some tips on how to keep your app 
resident in memory as long as possible.
