PD: I've checked the Image control in Flex and what it ends up doing is
really simple. Just use a Loader and pass the raw data, and you're done.
Quick and dirty example, assuming you're already listening for the complete
event and the user has loaded a valid image.
private function handleComplete(e:Event):void {
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.loadBytes(_fileRef.data);
addChild(loader);
}
