about drag an image...

local lastImagePosition

on mouseDown
    put the loc of me into lastImagePosition
end mouseDown

on mouseMove
    get the mouseloc
    if it is within the boundingRect of me then set the loc of me to it
    else set the loc of me to lastImagePosition -- back to original 
loc if cursor leaves boundingRect
end mouseMove

works for me.

Set the image's boundingRect property to constrain the portion of the 
window the image can reside in.
