Anyone have suggestions on good tutorials or examples of how to create MSI packages using visual studio?
In particular, I’m interested in creating a deployment package for an ASP.NET website.

Assuming by “Visual Studio Installer” you mean creating an installer in Visual Studio, this one seems like it covers quite a few topics. It gives you a quick and dirty way (via wizard) to get your installer working, then goes into details on how to change other properties, like version numbers, icons and such.
The wording of your title might prevent people from attempting to answer because Visual Studio Install is taken to mean the installer for putting VS on your system, whereas the wording of your questions and your history on SO indicate that you have VS installed and are probably wanting to create an installer for a VS project. Clarifying this point will probably give you better responses.
