Well, I think the default behaviour is right, because I always think
that a splash screen is an eyecandy to show while the app is loading;
to achieve what you want you could:
1) put an explicit delay right after SplashScreen creation
2) add and EVT_CLOSE to the SplashScreen
   and from the OnClose function, Show() your frame
