or cube.material = new BitmapFileMaterial(url);

for an swf its indeed a flash basic loader, once loaded, pass the loader data to MovieMaterial as MovieClip

Let me know if this helps or is too vague:

1. Make cube with some default Bitmapmaterial like this:

mycube.material=new BitmapMaterial(new BitmapData(128, 128, false, 0xFF0000));

2. Load your jpg with URLRequest add contentLoaderInfo listener.

3. On listener COMPLETE replace the bitmap something like this:

mycube.material.bitmap=event.target.content.bitmapData;

Let me know if it makes sense. There may be a shorter way, but this is how I am used to doing it.

Absolutely.  I want to create a cube in actionscript similar to the
following (not tested for errors):

var c = new Cube({ width:300, height:300, depth:20} );

Then I want to assign an image to one of the faces, the image should
rest in a URL, say, this one: 
http://img.timeinc.net/time/photoessays/2008/world_water/water_01.jpg

Additionally, as I mentioned before, I would like to be able to apply
SWF files in the same way, but that's not as important, and I don't
know if it's even possible under away3d.
