Pax+Christi

I am almost done with a book I am working on; however, when I import it into Aldiko Basic it doesn't load the cover image. I am using Basic, but that shouldn't matter for a problem like this.
When I navigate to the eBooks folder, it creates .cover.png and .thumbcover.png, but both are simply blank!
The first version of this book had the cover in a svg wrapper using code from these forums, I didn't know if that was the problem, so I using a simple img tag instead. Still nothing.
I have checked the content.opf file over and see no problems.
The epub was generated from InDesign, but I manually inserted the image and made many other edits in Sigil.
I have uninstalled/re-installed Aldiko as well as deleting the whole eBooks directory and re-importing the book. Nothing.
I am quite flabergasted with this, any ideas?
