            let imageSize = CGSizeFromString(dictNSDict["UILaunchImageSize"] as String)
            if CGSizeEqualToSize(imageSize, viewSize) && viewOrientation == (dictNSDict["UILaunchImageOrientation"] as String) {
                return dictNSDict["UILaunchImageName"] as String
            }
        }
        return ""
    }
