[Verizon] Installing clockworkmod touch .img file

I downloaded the official .img file from clockworkmods website but cannot figure out how to install it. Instructions say to boot to fastboot, but when I do that, the only options I have are to restart boot loader, boot to recovery, start, or power off. The next step says to fast boot flash the .img file. Am I missing something?
 
if you can't figure it out (i am sure someone will help you out) you can auto-flash it through ROM manager with an in app purchase. i am technically dumb when it comes to fasboot and ADB stuff so i just ponied up the $3 or whatever it was and did it though ROM manager...took like 10 seconds, and it was totally worth it...plus i like supporting the developers that make this phone so great.

p.s. CWM touch is AMAZING!!!!
 
When you're in the bootloader it defaults to fastboot mode. So if you don't change anything, you're all set. So assuming you already used fast boot to unlock your bootloader, drop the img file into the platform-tools folder of the sdk, open a command prompt and change directory to the platform-tools folder. Then run these commands:

fastboot devices (to verify connectivity)

Then...

fastboot flash recovery (exact filename of recovery here).img

Minus the ( ) symbols of course.
