Cover image isn't displaying as cover image

[Eugene88]

I've created cover image and two pages. Haven't toched TOC yet. Marked my front image as cover image and saved everything once again.

When I tryed to import this book too Aldiko Reader it add this book as blank page. Sure when I start to read it shows everything correctly, but for some reason there is a blank page as first page.

Silly question:
Did you place the image ON a page (the cover page)?
Sigil will display a native image file (eg foo.jpeg), that is a naked image

Use the Black screen Icon to place the Image on a page

Got it, thanks. I'm new to this tool.

Answer: Check the "content.opf" at the bottom of the file listing. Near the bottom of this file is the

<spine toc="ncx">
<itemref idref="coverpage-wrapper" linear="no" />
<itemref idref="item4" linear="yes" />
<itemref idref="item5" linear="yes" />
<itemref idref="item6" linear="yes" />
<itemref idref="item7" linear="yes" />
</spine>

If your cover image is marked "linear="no"/> Change the no to yes. This should allow the cover to display.
