@mgcul8r that's just another potential problem... the correct behaviour (for any of the tools, be it usb-creator, universal-usb-installer or unetbootin) should be to allow the user to select an iso uisng a standard file selection window and go from there...
Limiting it to specific filenames (unless there's a reason for doing so, obviously) creates a usability problem when, as you've pointed out, the filenames aren't the same...
and what about variants?
For example, Ubuntu, Kubuntu and Xubuntu (at least on cdimages.ubuntu.com) all use the same file name (e.g. karmic-desktop-i386.iso)
What if I want to pull each of those down, using save-as to get all three ISOs into one directory, build CDs and install to try them out to decide which I like better?
That, IMHO at least, is reason enough to not tie them down to hard-coded specific file names.
