To me it looks like you're using images that are not the same aspect ratio as the folder covers. If you use a 4:3 aspect folder cover, you need to use either a 4:3 image, or an other image that will crop in an OK manner. Using an image with an aspect ratio that is not the same is sort of uncontrollable.

I use 3:1 aspect ratio folder cover on my homepage. I didn't like the uncontrolled cropping, so I created cover images in 3:1 aspect ratio. I then uploaded them to a hidden gallery and linked to them from the gallery settings page.

PS: You should warn folks to put their sunglasses on before they see that bright red text! (just teasing)

Where necessary, I create a version of a image cropped to fit the folder on which I will use it but just for that purpose, and set to 'hide' so it isn't visible to visitors in the gallery in which it is stored.

These might be useful although I'm not sure if or how to apply them to folders.
