@Amalthia: You should use cover images that are roughly the same aspect ratio as the reader screen. That will workaround this bug in older version of ADE. And in any case, using a cover image that has a wildly different aspect ratio, as in this case, will lead to very distorted looking images in newer versions of ADE, which instead of not resizing, resize but dont preserve the aspect ratio.
Sadly sometimes it's impossible to get a cover image that fits the aspect ratio. But it's good to know what's going on.

Thanks!
