horrible idea - why wait 10 seconds - fading out would be prettier

but get your app working before you start fancifying the interface.

One way, but that wait would drive me crazy as a user:

...that wait would drive me crazy as a user

perhaps that is the intended result

Some would say "that ship has sailed", which is perhaps true, so I should have said "crazier".
