Jana,

Well I tried changing the cover image to a JPEG but it still did not get included in the EPUB:

I don't know about RST, but if you want to include a cover image with an HTML e-book, it has to be a jpg, not a png. I'm guessing it would probably be the same in RST, since I think it's a limitation of either epub or mobi or some readers or a combination of these.
