I can confirm existence of this issue as well in 10.10. If I click on the "Ubuntu 10.10 i386" icon in Nautilus, I'm prompted for root password to mount it, when I enter my password, I receive an error message:
"Error mounting: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0,
       missing codepage or helper program, or other error
       (could this be the IDE device where you in fact use
       ide-scsi so that sr0 or sda or so is needed?)
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail or so"

Perhaps this is a bug in Nautilus, not usb-creator?
