Just import an image and put it at the top of your document. You'll probably want to add a chapter break after it.

Sigil will
never resize your images. Epub as a format was meant to display on many different devices with many different screen sizes. Trying to settle on one cover image size is pointless and will always fail to display correctly on some devices.
What you should do is wrap your image in some SVG code so it automatically resizes. AFAIK there are other ways of doing this too. Check out the
epub subforum on MobileRead, and the
code snippets sticky.
Sigil will one day have a WYSIWYG action that automatically wraps your image in SVG.

Create an issue and attach the files in question. I can't guess the bug away.

That is done with CSS. If you are asking for a WYSIWYG way of doing that, there currently isn't one.
Adobe's EPUB best practices document recommends that books use this CSS code by default:
Code:
body, div, p, h1, h2, h3, h4 { margin: 0; padding: 0; }
I plan on adding it for books created with the "New" command, but nobody really uses that. Everyone just imports. I will not automatically add these styles to imported documents because Sigil tries to preserve your document as much as possible.
So just add this style directly. It should take you 2 seconds to copy-paste it into Code View.

Some day, sure. Not soon though.
