Hi

I have been creating an XML gallery now got to showing the big images part. I want to create a resizing background (like at [http://www.bearfootfilms.com/](http://www.bearfootfilms.com/)). I can create the effect but it always resizes from the top left not center.

Any one got any ideas?

I’m using the code:

var VTween = new Tween(picbg, “\_width”, Strong.easeInOut, 100, currentImage.largepicholder.\_width+20, 1, true);  
var HTween = new Tween(picbg, “\_height”, Strong.easeInOut, 100, currentImage.largepicholder.\_height+20, 1, true);
