@DNSB...

"...Unfortunately, the .mobi format does not allow for image sizes in percents. Pixels only need apply."

True enough, but KF8 image format should always use percentage values. So if you want correct image displays on both KF7 and KF8 devices then just use my AddKindleMediaQueries plugin. This plugin automatically dual formats all images in you epub for both KF8 devices(as percentage screen values) as well as for KF7 devices(as absolute pixel values). Which image format is actually displayed for the current Kindle device is decided by the media queries in the css.
