External Image Resize help

programming flash
1

I am trying to load an external image into a movie clip that is already on the Stage and size it to the movie clips size. The movie clip name is member_gallery with the width of 360 and the height of 251. One of the images i am trying to load into it is 1024 * 768. I would also like to load other images of different sizes into the same movie clip and they all change to 360 * 251 when loaded.

here is what i have been messing with :


onClipEvent(load){
var container2:MovieClip = createEmptyMovieClip("container2", getNextHighestDepth());
var mcLoader2:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
mcLoader2.addListener(this);
mcLoader2.loadClip("http://www.gothics-r-us.com/chat/images/gru.jpg", container2);
trace(this._width);
trace(container2._xscale);
    container2._xscale = this._width / 10;
    container2._yscale = this._height / 10;
    //container2._height = 251;

}

Please help! i am new to this.
