I always tend to resize the images so that the fit 600x800px matrix, but I would love to understand how readers process the images in EPUB files.

Thanks in advance!
I don't worry about it, I make the cover and any full page image 600x860
(And a separate Kindle cover 600x800 to allow for the kindle conversion.)
Then in the CSS the images are sitting on a .img {max-width: 100%} problem solved.

Although Lately I've been making the height to be 100% instead of the Width...
