Hmm, neither 0.5.14's oeb2mobi nor 0.6.0b10's ebook-convert seem to properly scale images from source HTML files, with either the deprecated "width" attribute or using CSS, as in:

<img style='width: 200px' ...>

mobigen will respect the "width" attribute, but not the CSS; it seems to just stick the "width" attribute and value in the Mobipocket markup directly. But calibre seems to actually take the width of the image, translate it into "em" units, and put that value in for the "width" attribute in the corresponding <img> tag in the Mobipocket markup.
