Hi, this is my first post on this forum. I’ve been going through the tutorials and forum trying to build a photo slideshow. I managed to get the slideshow working with buttons, ( [http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/xml\_slideshow.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/xml_slideshow.htm) ) but am really stuck with trying to center the images … I’m using portrait and lanscape images, and want them both to be vertically and horizontally centered in a 504x504 moive.

I’m a AS noob, and I know i’ve bitten off more than I can chew, but if anyone could give me a few pointers it would be much appriciated.

thanks
