Function arguments in C are passed by value.
create_image_from_file() gets the value NULL in the splash
argument (a local variable), changes to it do not affect
the caller's variable. To change something in the called
functions you have to give it a *pointer* to GtkWidget*
and change the location it points to.
This is an elementary C knowledge unrelated to Gtk+, please
consult your C guide for details.
And in this case it would be silly anyway. Why does not
the function *return* the created widget instead of some
useless constant integer?
