I have 2 questions though:
1. Is there a way to set the color of the background that shows before the loader? (it is white, and I'd like to set it to black)?
2. If my html file is in another folder, can I update links (from the script) and which links should I update? Or is an easier option just to copy the banner, js forlders and preview.swf into that folder?
Thanks again, you guys are great!

Yes, you can set the color of the background in the XML. Make sure you set it's transparency, also in the XML.
For the second question, you can keep the folder where you want to, but use the pathToFiles to specify that folder. Here's some details about how to use path to files, and soon we'll deploy the video tutorials for all products as well!

But I can not get the preview. ;(
What should I put in my html page?
What are the absolute addresses that I have to change?
Excuse my English.
thanks
