ActionScript 3 Full Browser Background Content.

This is the second iteration of this class. I decided to put the NpFSObjectResize Class to use within this demo, using that class as the superclass for here. As a result, this new version of this file is much more capable, supporting stage alignment modes along with a simple method for loading in new background images or swfs. You could use that feature to create a simple full browser slideshow, but be warned that I have not used the same bitmapData memory management techniques as I have within the Full Browser Cross Fading demo. So, your memory useage could get higher using this class as a slideshow (as you will be waiting on the garbage collector to do its thing).
