Help! Custom Class registration problem...

Question

Hi guys
I posted a question regarding how to make a ladybug move
around the screen and I managed to make a class that loaded a
ladybug png then using a timer moves the bug around the screen...
but I have a huge problem...this has been bugging me all day
and cannot find a solution...
The ladybug moves around the screen but rotates towards the
moving direction before moving. The problem is that the ladybug is
rotating at 0,0 axis and not at the centre of the movieClip. Is
there a way to offset the registration point so that the ladybug
rotates centred?

Also I saw something about using "smooth" to smooth out the
bitmap...is there a way to incorporate this here as well?

Please help my sanity is in stake...
Thank you
I've attached the codes...

1. add your ladybug to a parent sprite and offset its x and y by negative its width and negative its height.

2. i don't think there is a smoothing property for the as3 loader so you'll need to create a bitmap and apply smoothing to it (after you use the bitmapdata's draw method to create a bitmapdata instance from your loader).
