I have confirmed that several (DRM-free) .lit books that include JPEG images can be exploded using ConvertLIT to an OEB book and then converted to .mobi using the command:
Code:
mobigen ebook.opf -c1 -s0 -jpeg
The resulting ebook.mobi file is readable using the iLiad MobiPocket Reader, and it includes large images. It also includes a formal TOC if the .opf has one. In some cases, the cover is reachable on the Windows MobiPocket Reader using the "Cover Page" link under contents - but not reachable on the iLiad. The file is not readable with FBReader, but I have filed a bug report to get this fixed (and the OEB version is obviously FBReader compatible).
So one possibility for making a .mobi with BD might be to instead make a .lit version. Then run it through ConvertLIT and mobigen. I can't test this because BD won't write .lit files on my PC (does it need MS Word to do this?). A better long term solution would be an improved .mobi capability for BD (or perhaps ePub will soon be a viable alternative, for BD and for MobiPocket reader - but don't hold your breath).
