[PyQt] Splash screen

[NARCISO, Rui]

I just tried to use QSplashScreen and nothing is happening. I mean, my app opens without showing the splash screen even if I put a 10 second sleep before the app is launched ...

What am I doing wrong ?
Here is the code:
def main():
    sys.argv.append("-style=plastique")
    app = QApplication(sys.argv)
    app.setApplicationName("Morgane")
    ##########################
    splash=QSplashScreen(QPixmap("Morgane_splash.jpg"), Qt.WindowStaysOnTopHint)
    splash.show()

    splash.showMessage('Loading ...')
    app.processEvents()
    ###############################

    form = MainWindow()
    form.setWindowTitle("Morgane - if at first the idea is not absurd, then there's no hope for it (A. Einstein)")
    form.show()

    app.connect(app, SIGNAL("lastWindowClosed()"), app, SLOT("quit()"))
    sleep(10)
    splash.finish(form)
    app.exec_()

QSplashScreen is pretty easy to use.
