  1. Open Your vb.net
  2. Add new project
  3. Go to properties of your form
  4. Clear the Text
  5. Set the FormBorderStyle to None.
  6. Insert a background image.
  7. Set the background image to stretch.
  8. Add a ProgressBar, a Timer and a Label to your form.
  9. Go to properties of timer set the Interval into 50 and Enabled to true.
  10. Double click the Timer event.

  11. Populate This Code Inside The Private Sub Timer_Tick;

     ProgressBar1.Increment(1)
       If ProgressBar1.value = 100 Then
              Me.hide() 
              form2.Show()
       End IF
  12. Increment which mean to increase by 1.
  13. form2.show to show an another form if the ProgressBar was done processing.
  14. In a Label you must rename it whatever you want.

Basically you set the form that you want to use as a splash screen in the program properties in Visual Studio. Very simple.
