Hi,  
I am trying to load images into flash but haven’t found any good tutorials for what I am trying to do. All the tuts out there show how to load the path to the picture. I am pulling the picture from MySQL, storing it in a PHP variable and I am trying to pass it into Flash. I am fairly new to Flash. I looked at the loadMovie() but that again seems to work only with paths. I need a load function that will load the actual image. Any help would be great.  
Thanks,

Mark
