Wordpress Theme Options page media uploader

I'm creating a Theme Options page for my theme in Wordpress. I've gone through the Setting API tutorial and got various input fields working great! One input type I want to include is a media upload field for adding custom images.

I've created a file input field but it isn't saving the choice when I click save! Here's the code using so far:

$options = get_option( 'port_settings' );   
    if( !isset( $options['header_logo'] ) ) $options['header_logo'] = FALSE;
    echo '<input type="file" id="port_header_logo" name="port_settings[header_logo]" value=""' . $options['header_logo'] . '>';

Is there a way to have an upload selector that's linked to the Wordpress Media Library?

Can anyone help?

I've cleaned up your question a bit using the proper code block markup. Be sure to check out the Markdown Cheatsheet below the text editor for more information!

Unfortunately, I'm not sure of the best answer for this one, so I've also requested answer from a couple additional folks.
