I don't have an iPad yet or any of the other epub readers to test with, but want my stuff to be viewable on all of them. I'm fine with doing an epub-specific cover, of course, but can't figure out what size will work across all readers. Thanks for any tips you can give me!

You can code for the cover to fit as long as the cover would fit width wise when the height is at maximum for the screen.
Code:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>
<meta name="calibre:cover" content="true"/>
<title>Cover</title>
<style type="text/css" title="override_css">
@page {padding: 0pt; margin:0pt}
body { text-align: center; padding:0pt; margin: 0pt; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div>
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" version="1.1" width="100%" height="100%" viewBox="0 0 600 800" preserveAspectRatio="xMidYMid meet">
<image width="600" height="800" xlink:href="coverh4a200033db.jpg"/>
</svg>
</div>
</body>
</html>
You'll have to change the name of the cover of course.
