    Do you know how to create a splash screen to begin with? You simply select a form as the splash screen in the project properties. As for how to display an animated GIF or SWF animation on that form, it's the same as any other form. You would use a PictureBox in the first case and a Shockwave Flash Object in the second case. The Shockwave Flash Object is an ActiveX control that you will have to add to your Toolbox from the COM tab first.
