hi

i really new to flash (2 days)  
i use flash cs5

i read the as3 help and made a php + flash image uploader and it works  
everything is done only from as3 no flash design etc  
now i want to load the image after the upload to resize it and apply some basic transformations  
for the interface of the application i didn’t use any movie clip or any kind of container  
to display the image i created a empty movie clip and loaded the image inside  
but now the image is over my interface

i should create another movie clip to contain the interface ?  
or what kind of containers should i use to make some kind of windows(zones of interface)  
how do i place a movie clip over another ?  
what exactly are movie clips and sprites ?  
any chm help format for ac3 around ?

thanks in advance for any response
