Flex - Using the vanilla preloader to load additional assets?

I have a Flex application that automatically loads the SWF and it's contents and displays the default progress bar like in all Flex apps. Currently I have a class in the application using a Loader instance to load an external bitmap to be added to the stage/canvas. I'd like to handle the loading of this bitmap in the Flex default preloader and get rid of the Loader instance entirely.

How can I do this?

You'll need to create your own implementation of mx.preloaders.DownloadProgressBar and set it as the preloader in your main application file.

<mx:Application ... preloader="com.domain.MyCustomPreloader"/>
