Duplicate Movie Clip after loading...?

Ello everyone, I am “trying” to experiment on have one movie clip load an external image and then telling it duplicate the movie clip with the loaded contents… is this possible? Here is what I have on the “loader” movie clip:

onClipEvent(load) {
function _load(img) {
this.loadMovie(img);
}
}

and on the timeline I have this:

loader.load(“image_name.jpg”);
for(var i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
duplicateMovieClip(loader, "img
" + i, i+1);
this[“img_” + i]._x = i * 100;
}

But this doesn’t seem to be working as planned. Any ideas on a work around? Many thanks!
