Splash screens, as they are called, are somewhat possible in Turing.
Though you cannot create a window without the border or window frame, you could just have a the window fit to the image size, centered on screen, and display the image for a few seconds before changing the screen to the dimensions you wish.

Turing:

%let's just say the image is 300x150 View.Set ("nobuttonbar, offscreenonly, title:Welcome!, graphics:300;150, position:center;center") Pic.ScreenLoad ("splash.bmp", 0, 0, 0) View.Update delay(4000) %set the screen size back to normal for the program View.Set("graphics:450;450") %program goes here

Hope that helps.
