How can I autosize images in actionscript 3?

First the loader creation:  
[COLOR=Blue]  
l = new Loader();  
thumb.here.addChild(l);  
var urlRequeste:URLRequest = new URLRequest(main\_fotos\*.imagem);  
l.load(urlRequeste);  
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);[/COLOR]

So when load is complete, the function is called:

[COLOR=Blue]function completeHandler(evt:Event):void {  
trace(evt.currentTarget.width)  
}  
[COLOR=Black]  
The trace outputs the width correct. But it is read olny. How can I resize it?[/COLOR]
