Any ideas about how to create a splash screen for my application using Python3 and PyGObject ? For example : Like the GIMP's slpash screen. In my case, i used time.sleep(...) and it makes my application start very slowly. I'm wondering if should i thread the slpash screen Gui. I've searched in websites and i didn't find any solution. Thanks for your answers. And sorry for my bad english.
