Start the tutorial and freeze it on the title frame. Do a screen cap, crop out everything except the title screen and save as a jpg. Then upload the jpg to your server, link the html to the image and your users will see an image very much like what they would see in a "real" embed. You can adjust the image size to match the space in the web page that delivers the tutorials.
