I believe you re stuck with the old, manual cover creation way, A lot of nifty features got added to the last version. GET A PC

1)Add the image to sigil. Add files:The image file
1b)Add cover symantics to the Image filename in the book browser.

2)Create a blank HTML file. File:Add Blank HTML file
2b)Add cover symantics to the HTML filename in the book browser.

3 opt) Link a stylesheet or style the image.

4) Place the image on the page. Adjust style to taste

Note COVER symantics get applied to BOTH the image and the coverpage (file)

You could use Calibre's POLISH to add a cover/metadata to your EPUB (no conversion that way)
