You are probably right. I do want to at least try a larger image size amongst the better apps, see what I might can get away with. It's been a couple years since I last messed with that.

But wait, there's more!

I normally test ebooks on my Pixel C tablet. Large 300dpi screen, it's the newest Android device I own, I saw no reason NOT to use it for testing. I prefer larger screen devices. Until now and this one, single solitary reader app.

But the Pixel C is the vector for the problem!

Out of 4 Android devices, using a fresh Aldiko install and freshly downloaded book file, ONLY the Pixel C/Aldiko has missing images!

All are perfectly fine on Nexus 7 (2013)/Aldiko, Nexus 9/Aldiko and a Nexus 6p phone running Aldiko.

Every device is running some version of stock Android. I even checked that Aldiko app settings were the same, no change. Then I played with settings on the Pixel C, in case it preferred, say, different margins to the other tablets, but could not get covers or author image to ever display.

So I'm a little less mystified, but can see no reason the book/app combo should work on 3 Android tablets, but not on the 4th. All I know is that I'm glad I only do this as a hobby!
