ok.. I rebuilt, rebundled, and reloaded and it worked. If anyone would 
like to look at it, do the following (assming you have elastic-fox):

1) Locate ami-29f21640
2) Edit your default security group (or any group). Add a group 
permission for CIDR 0.0.0.0/0 TCP/IP from 3000 to 3000.
3) Launch the ami in this security group, using your personal key.
4) You should then be abl to ssh into it with login/password 
root/thincrust or be able to access the web console on port 3000.

Nice work joey. Couple of comments:

- Can you add a -n attribute so I can name it what I want?
- is there any way to autodetect the inputtype based on the imagefile?
- There is a slight type in the hlp for inputtype.
