Could not resolve to a component implementation error

Question

I am using the SuperImage component from
http://www.quietlyscheming.com/blog/2007/01/23/some-thoughts-on-doubt-on-flex-as-the-best- option-orhow-i-made-my-flex-images-stop-dancing/
The problem I am having is that when I try to use this
component in a TileList ItemRenderer, I recieve the error Could not
resolve <qs:SuperImage> to a component implementation.
In my Application tag, I use xmlns:qs="qs.controls.*" which
allows me to use the SuperImage component anywhere else, but the
error occurs when I use it in a Component.
I have searched for an answer but could not find anything
that worked. Can anyone help me figure out what is wrong? Below is
the code where the error occurs.
<mx:TileList>
<mx:itemRenderer>
<mx:Component>
<mx:VBox>
<qs:SuperImage/>
<mx:Label/>
</mx:VBox>
</mx:Component>
</mx:itemRenderer>
</mx:TileList>
Thank you for any help.

Answer 1

Why would Component not be able to find the package, but
everywhere else in the same file can?
If I add <qs:SuperImage/> right before the TileList, it
works correctly. Is there a way to specify the classpath for
Component specifically? I wasn't able to find a way to do
that.
