mobi2imp help

First of all let me say that I think that this program in combination with bookdesigner seems to be a very fast way to convert 80% of the books I want to read. My original problem with it was that I could not get a full screen cover page. However, yesterday after dropping a pdf file into bookdesigner I thought "Wow, that a pretty good conversion!",so I cleaned it up made a prc file then converted it to imp with mobi2imp. But, alas a small cover. So I looked at the samples included with mobi2imp and saw full page covers!

LOL, come on someone slap me in the head and set me straight. I feel like I am reinventing the wheel every time I need to drive to work.

I have attached screen shots of all the conversion setting I used starting with bookdesigner to prc and the final mobi2imp output. I don't remember the exact size of the jpg cover image but it is plenty big enough to get a full page size in ebook publisher.
