Hopefully, I'm in the correct forum for my question -- if not, please move this thread to where it should be located.

This could be an exceedingly stupid question, but I can't seem to find the answer. Please keep in my I am a novice -- just got my first ereader about 6 hours ago, just installed Calibre about an hour ago, lol.

I am having an issue getting the cover art for ebooks to display on my reader.

I have a new Kobo Glo. I used Calibre to download and place a copy of Sense and Sensibility onto the reader. I've also manually placed copies of Pride and Prejudice and Jane Eyre. All DRM free, Project Gutenberg. I downloaded and edited the metadata for S&S, via Calibre, including a different piece of cover art.

The books all appear on the reader fine, but the cover art is lacking in all -- _including_ the one I attached the new artwork to in Calibre. Is it supposed to be there? Or, does cover art only display in Calibre? Is it a matter of it being a free ebook -- do they lack embedded cover art? Could it be some glitch with the reader or having the epubs in the incorrect folders?

If anyone could clarify, I'd appreciate it -- I have no idea if the problem is the file, software, reader or none of the above, lol...
