Cool Making covers in conversion

Hello,

I am new to Calibre and I've watched the tutorials, but I have a question that I haven't been able to find the answer for. I'm converting from HTML to MOBI, and also from EPUB to MOBI, and in both cases the files must not have a cover associated with them, because I find that in the conversion process Calibre will pick a random image from the file and make it the cover of the book. I want to stop this from happening, but I can't find a preference anywhere in the conversion module to do this. Can someone please point me in the right direction?

Thanks!
Before you convert, add your cover of choice to Calibre's metadata for that book.
