Does anyone have any suggestions or sites that I could use to learn NSIS?
Thanks

Take a closer look at the Launchers

That's what I did and I came pretty far (thanks to Ryan's help). I also took a look at the NSIS pages but found them pretty hard to find any info on.

In every app released here

there is a folder called "Other". In it, there is a folder called "APPNAMEPortableSource". In that one there is a file called APPNAMEPortable.nsi. Thats the sourcecode of the launcher.
Take a look at it in some editor. I use Notepad2Portable, because it highlights the NSIS-Syntax.
Start with 7-zip or Filezilla and try to figure out what each command is doing.
