To load images inside ActionScript 3 you use the Loader class.

var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadComplete);
loader.load(new URLRequest("HERE GOES YOUR IMAGE URL"));

private function loadComplete(event:Event):void
{
     pictureFromUrl.addChild(loader.content);
}
