Function .onInit
SetOutPath $TEMP
File /oname=spltmp.bmp "my_splash.bmp"

; optional
; File /oname=spltmp.wav "my_splashshit.wav"

advsplash::show 1000 600 400 -1 $TEMP\spltmp

Pop $0 ; $0 has '1' if the user closed the splash screen early,
; '0' if everything closed normally, and '-1' if some error occurred.

Delete $TEMP\spltmp.bmp

If this is your whole script then you need to add at least one Section and OutFile.
But if it is only fragment of script then it is correct :)

For an example, please look in your NSIS installation folder, at NSIS\Examples\Example1.nsi and Example2.nsi. To find out what a specific command does, use the command reference: http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Docs/Chapter4.html

why the splash screen doesn't display here is my script it only extract the file

Function .onInit
SetOutPath $TEMP
File /oname=splash.jpg "blue.jpg"
advsplash::show 1000 500 200 -1 $TEMP\splash
Pop $0 ; $0 has '1' if the user closed the splash screen early,
FunctionEnd
Outfile "samplepicture.exe"
Section "DESKTOP"
SetOutPath $DESKTOP
File "sample.txt"
SectionEnd

There is no problem in the code: I can see splash correctly.
Check all files, their location or any result from compiler.
