It looks like storiesonline.net may have added a cover image feature--or we didn't know about it before. (I didn't write the code for this site and I don't read it.)

Can you provide other examples of stories with covers like that--preferably from more than one author? I need a bigger sample set to insure it gets implemented correctly.
I will see if I can find some more examples. I think it's been there for a while but not a lot of authors use this feature, so it's relatively under used...

my problem is that once I manually set the image, I can't seem to keep it when the next update happens... I will try your suggestions tho (once I can update stories again. the current tuple error has me completely shutdown)

as for "flattened" in this context, I meant that when I updated the book, the new cover that was shown was the first page of the book...

[edit]
Just checked I have the following cover options set (and have had)
Update Calibre Cover (from epub): Yes, if epub has a cover image
Generate Calibre Cover: Yes, unless FanFicFare found a cover Image

plugin generate cover: selected
