QEMU not booting my image

hello all,
I have been trying to boot an image (.IMG) using qemu, for quite some time now and i can't seem to get it to work. I've been able to boot from the Windows XP CD, the Debian iso image, etc, so I know qemu is configured properly and is working. But when it come to booting an image that I created, it just doesn't work. I have tried creating an image with only the grub files, and qemu does not seem to even recognize the image as a bootable image. The result I get when trying to boot from the latter, is the same result I get if I just type the command "qemu" without any options. The image in question is attached below.
