I believe this should work.....
private var bitmapDataCopy:BitmapData;
private var sourceBitmap:BitmapData;
private function init():void {
var imgLoad:Loader=new Loader();
imgLoad.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,init2);
imgLoad.load(new URLRequest("assets/imagename.png"));
}
private function init2(e:Event):void {
sourceBitmap = e.target.content.bitmapData as BitmapData;
bitmapDataCopy = sourceImage.clone();
}
