This is not the way to do it. The function of a splash screen is to  
entertain/inform the user while the application performs some necessary  
start-up functions, not to keep him from working while a no-op timer runs  
out.

If your application doesn't have a sufficiently lengthy startup time,  
don't make a splash screen.
