Jackie, I had "No SVG cover" checked, since I was told that this would force Calibre to look for the JPG-file. I just tried converting a few books with smaller covers unchecked, but no result. I discovered that resolution has no impact on cover size, only when I do have full covers, the higher resolution gives a sharper image on my Nexus 10. Sometimes when I open a converted book (from MOBI to EPUB and again to EPUB, as per Kovid) you see a quick glimpse of a complete cover, but then it goes immediately back to a smaller size (the smaller sizes differ in size as well). I am in the process of converting all my 1500 books from MOBI to EPUB/EPUB, but as mentioned before it is hit and miss regarding full cover or a smaller one. I have no filler bars with a smaller cover, but I do get text underneath the picture from the next page of the book.
As mentioned before it is not the end of the world, but these "mysteries" intrigue me and being a stubborn Dutchman living in cowboy country Montana, I want to find a solution!
