iphone - splash (launch image) in landscape mode?

Question

I am developing a game which works only in landscape mode. When I import a launch image (Default.png) into my xcode proj and run it, the image appears in portrait mode and then the view starts in landscape mode. How can I make my splash/launch image be displayed in landscape mode only?

Answer 1

First thing is no one is gonna know from outside the application that application is gonna run in portrait or landscape.

If at all you still want to view the splash screen in landscape mode you have to design the image in such a way as we cannot change the behaviour of the splash screen.

Instead of designing the image as 320X480, design it as 480X320 and your problem will get solved.
