Kindle COver Bug - My Journey

Okay, this might be an old topic, but I KNOW there are still some suffering from this. I've done a LOT of testing, and here is how I fixed it forever. Yes, it's a bit tedious, but it DOES work every time.

1. Take your epub(s) and run through the online epub converter.
2. Do a Google search for the cover9s), then remove the exif data.
3. Remove all metadata for the book(s) in Calibre. (Possibly optional)
4. Replace the cover(s) with the new one.
5. Resize cover(s) in Calibre.
5. Use tools to compress the pictures, 40% lossy will work just fine, optional.
6. Polish book(s) with Calibre.
7. Convert or bulk convert from epub to AZW3.
8. Send to device.
