Here is a simple walkthrough how to integrate this cover flow script into your wordpress blog:
First, upload the coverflow.swf, coverConfig.xml and coverFeed.xml to any folder, eg. I choose wp-content/uploads/2008/08.
Then create a new post. Push the “Show / hide the Kitchen Sink” button to show more buttons, then select the “Insert / edit embedded media” button.
A dialog appears:
Choose Flash media type, provide path to the uploaded coverflow.swf and enter your desired width and height. Select the advanced tab:
Fill in id and name if desired. The important options are the Scale and Salign options. Set them to noscale and Top left as in the image. Also the Flashvars are important: here you provide the path to the coverConfig and coverFeed.xml. In my case I have entered this value:
coverConfig=/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/coverConfig.xml&coverFeed=/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/coverFeed.xml
Thats it! Ofcourse, don’t forget also to upload images and set correct image paths coverConfig and coverFeed xmll files.

I finally got this working correctly. Simply awesome!
My only problem is that I cannot center the flash file on my page. Can I not center this in a table for example?
