            <description><![CDATA[Hi again,

As rvingwriter said, I uploaded the zipped HTML (no KindleGen conversion) to DTP and previewed. The images displayed in the same size. So, I think the converter in the (myaccount)@free.kindle.com still has the old limitation of 64KB for images.

            <description><![CDATA[Hi,

Thank notjohn for your advice. I've found the new image guidelines in  http://forums.digitaltextplatform.com/dtpforums/entry!default.jspa?categoryID=10&externalID=24&fromSearchPage=true

> Image guideline #2: automatic image conversions
> The Kindle file format internally supports JPEG and GIF images of up to 127KB in size. This is double the previously-supported maximum of 63KB, and provides for richer nuances in images, particularly for large images, or content with gradient patterns.

Then, I tried again to employ over 64KB images in zipped HTML, send to (myaccount)@free.kindle.com to get .azw file and check it with Kindle for PC. But still the images that surpass 64KB shrink. I made a .mobi file and converted it into .azw file. All the images are displayed perfectly.

I don't know why but as far as KindleGen and .mobi file format works fine, I should take the conversion process rather than directly send zipped HTML to DTP.

Thanks everyone for your support.

We’ve confirmed that your book “Whoa Whoota” is now available on the web site even though it is still in "Publishing" mode on your Bookshelf. Please note that it may take 36-72 hours for a product description to be updated on the web site.

            <description><![CDATA[I just published "Whoa Woota". It is a colorful children's book with rich graphics but, since Kindle does do color, I submitted it to be read by parents to their children because the black and white graphics did work. But I submitted the color cover and put in the description that it was a black and while graphic so people wouldn't be deceived into thinking it was all in color. I even put a 99 cent price on it because of the lack or inability to use the original color. I also described it as a book to be read by parents to children. None of this was in the description --- in fact, there was NO description. This has me a little upset. Does anyone out there know who I can complain to at Kindle or Amazon regarding the lack of a description with the book? Thank you. JH]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[You should be able to find the new instructions in the FAQ. Basically, it's 600x800 and 127KB. 

In another post, someone pointed out that 600x800 is the resolution of the Kindle screen. I can't verify that, and when I go to a website that I know has a 575 pixel column, I find that the Kindle reflows the text and doesn't get as many words on a line as are shown on my computer screen. (Seven lines on the site show as nine lines on the Kindle.) But then, it really doesn't display the web page as it is shown on a real browser.

I'm skeptical of Kindle Gen, Mobipocket Creator, and other such hacks. I feel more confident with the Preview on the DTP itself. That gives me results consistent with viewing the book on the Kindle.]]></description>

Did you make this file by converting through Calibre, by any chance?  There's been a problem with Calibre-created .mobi files having inadequate header space for the second layer of DRM necessitated by the fact that the reader is on a PC, rather than the standalone device.
