I am trying to control the x and y coordinatesof where jpgs get loaded into an empty_mc. Anyone know how to do this. I am not having any problems loading them but what if I don't want them to be left justified?

Thank you so much. But....... The thing is I don't want to move the empty_mc that I am loading images into. I want to control the coordinates inside the empty_mc.
Because if I change the location of the empty_mc then I have to change it for every single images that gets loaded in and I have like 30 or so.

here is some of what my code looks like.
As you can see with the last image I added in the code for the x and y like you suggested (thanks) but it now changes the coordinates for all the other images that get loaded in.

Actionscript:

peo1_btn.onRelease = function(){
    mcLoader.loadClip("pictures/img/hirez/peo1.jpg", big_emc);
};

peo2_btn.onRelease = function(){
    mcLoader.loadClip("pictures/img/hirez/peo2.jpg", big_emc);
};

peo3_btn.onRelease = function(){
    mcLoader.loadClip("pictures/img/hirez/peo3.jpg", big_emc);
    big_emc._x = 500;
    big_emc._y = 125;
};

So not to be a pain but do you know if there is another way?
