A new option for MOBI creation is Calibre. This is still in beta test, but I found that the following works: a) export FB2 from BookDesigner, b) import (Add Books) FB2 into Calibre, c) Export MOBI (Convert Ebooks; Output: MOBI). The MOBI generation takes a while, and make sure you have the latest version of Calibre (0.4.131) because MOBI bugs are being fixed as they come up.

I don't know if FB2 is the best starting point, and there is no guide to Calibre MOBI creation, but this should get you an ebook with illustrations.
