Centering images in a container

Question

I’ve been searching to find an answer for this little
problem without luck. I’m loading external jpgs into an empty
movie clip. The clip is large enough to accommodate vertical as
well as horizontal images. What do I need to do to have the images
load in the center of the clip instead of the top left corner?
Thanks for your help.

Thank you very much for your help, but I’m a bit lost.
I’m adapting this movieloaderclass code.
mclL.onLoadProgress= function(target,loaded,total){
theText._visible = true;
theText.text = Math.round((loaded/total)*100)+"%";
preloader_mc._visible = true;
preloader_mc.progress_mc._width =
preloader_mc.base_mc._width * (loaded/total);
mclL.onLoadInit = function(){
preloader_mc._visible = false;
theText._visible = false;
var tw01 : Tween
=newTween(container.img["img"+counter],"_alpha",None.easeNone,container.img["img"+counter] ._alpha,100,3,true);
caption.text = captions[whoIsOn]
tw01.onMotionChanged = function(){
container.img["img"+(counter-1)].removeMovieClip
var img_mc:MovieClip =
container.img.createEmptyMovieClip("img"+counter,0);
img_mc._alpha = 0;
mcl.loadClip(myArray[whoIsOn],img_mc);
function released(){
if(this.numb<>whoIsOn){
whoIsOn=this.numb;
counter++
var img_mc:MovieClip =
container.img.createEmptyMovieClip("img"+counter,counter);
img_mc._alpha = 0;
mcl.loadClip(myArray[whoIsOn],img_mc);
If this is not too complicated and time consuming can you
tell me how can I access my image properties from the preloader?
Thanks again.
