Thanks -- but can Calibre give you some warning what is happening? A message every time you load files to a Kindle.
"If the cover does not display on Kindle, please just reconnect it to Calibre, DO NOT redownload, and covers will be restored".
I loaded some books from Calibre only to see the cover appear for a second and disappear. So I connected it again, loaded the book again. Over and over, tried different formats, looked at all the cover settings I could see. Of course, since I was sideloading the entire book AZW file as well, every time the Kindle would see a new book, do its check and replace the cover.
I came here and eventually hit on the right search terms to find this thread and discover what I was doing wrong.
