How to select and move an image using 1 mouse click?

[Ian Wood]

Eric, on mousedown the new image doesn't exist yet...

I managed this in the past, but can't remember exactly how I did it. :-(

Something like: make the new image, set a custom prop to true to show  
that it's draggable, and have a mousemove handler in the new image  
that triggers if the custom prop is true. Then have a mouseup handler  
in the new image that resets the custom prop to false.
