The important thing for iso files is not to use -data when using 
cdrecord. I don't know about .img files, but I used Arash' suggestion 
and renamed it.

Even if practicaly there are no differences, users as I said will get 
confused. All the documentation refers to writing iso files, the K3B 
menu says "Write ISO images" and so on. 

Anyway, let's hope that BerliOS guys can rename it there.

Cheers
