Is this problem I am due to the comic converter I used? Maybe the cover image is embedded in the MOBI wrong or something? Or would the cover thumbnail not show up if that was the case?

All good questions, but the person who would be the best to answer them (NiLuJe) is away at school.
Well, I am pretty sure that the cover thumbnail is handled by the Amazon firmware.
And the screen saver image(s) are handled by the ss add-in.
It is certainly possible that one of those can accept something that the other one can not.
I don't know the ss add-in well enough to suggest anything else.
(Well, other than using the 'free' command or the 'swapon -s' command after trying to open the big file, to see is swap had actually been used. There should be examples of those commands in that post.)
