Sheesh...

Thinking that liveusb-creator is often run from LiveCD, wouldn't it be
nice to create a statically linked liveusb-creator that can be
downloaded as a single binary and run?. Furthermore, such statically
linked executable could be compressed with the UPX executable
compressor...

although you have already installed liveusb-creator, did you give
consideration to using;

   dd if=/path/to/iso-file of=/dev/usb

i run fedora for special programs and mainly use scientific linux,
which already had liveusb-creator installed.
