A dated term (like `dialling` telephone numbers when most telephones have
buttons to press nowadays). What I meant was 24-bit pictures displaying a
logo/picture, before the program loads - it annoys me to have to wait for
these pics to be loaded/displayed, before the program runs - Microsoft are
the worst offenders, natch.
