Hi,

I've recently decided to to convert my books to dual mobi format because it's inherently better than the old MOBI, and Amazon doesn't allow you to send pure azw3 files through its "Send to Kindle" app. And this part is important: I highly value Amazon's cloud for storing my books, since it keeps everything synched between my devices.

My primary ebook reader is the Kindle Voyage. When I Mobi files using the old format, the cover shows up just fine. However, if I send it as a dual Mobi, there's no cover thumbnail on the "cover view."

Am I doing anything wrong, or is this the expected behavior? I know the cover image is in the book - if I flip back the pages, I can see it. The problem is restricted to the thumbnail image.

It's not a big deal, though - I can always switch to list view. I just want to know whether I'm the one causing the issue, or if anything can be done about it.

Thanks in advance.
