What Image size I should keep in Android for Splash Screen?

Question

I have developed application in Android and designed one splash screen image of size 320x480. I wish to run this app in mobiles only. But when i run my app in emulator the image is stretched and its not looking good. I have gone through the document of developer but it didn't help me enough. So basically i wish to know that what size should i define that the splash screen looks as it is designed and the image should not stretched.

My XML file...

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
   android:layout_width="fill_parent"
   android:layout_height="fill_parent"
   android:layout_gravity="center"
   android:background="@drawable/screenbackground"
   android:gravity="bottom"
   android:orientation="vertical" >

   <ProgressBar
       android:id="@+id/progressBar1"
       style="?android:attr/progressBarStyleLarge"
       android:layout_width="20dp"
       android:layout_height="20dp"
       android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
       android:layout_marginTop="10dp" >
   </ProgressBar>

   <TextView
       android:id="@+id/textView1"
       android:layout_width="wrap_content"
       android:layout_height="wrap_content"
       android:layout_below="@+id/progressBar1"
       android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
       android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
       android:text="@string/loaddata"
       android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium"
       android:textColor="#ffffff" >
   </TextView>
</RelativeLayout>

Please kindly give me suggestion or any link or resources.

Thanks
