Вот код и screenshot:

private function handleInit(event:Event):void {
        try {
                var ratio:Number = _loader.content.width / _loader.content.height;

                // loaded picture is broader than _loader
                if (ratio > RATIO) {
                        _loader.content.width = W;
                        _loader.content.height = W / ratio;
                        _loader.content.y = (H - _loader.content.height /* - TH */) / 2;
                } else {
                        _loader.content.width = H * ratio;
                        _loader.content.height = H;
                        _loader.content.x = (W - _loader.content.width) / 2;
                }
        } catch (e:Error) {
                // resizing avatars loaded from vkontakte.ru by the Pref.swf
                // hosted at preferans.de won't work because of their crossdomain.xml
        }
        _loader.visible = true;
        _anonym.visible = false;
