Topic awaiting preservation: blender: help with textures (Page 1 of 1)

Okay, I've got this blender render I've been working and I was wondering if anyone with any blender experience could help with the material interface. The problem I'm having is I can't get the textures to wrap and/or scale properly.

Well...what texture more specifically are you talking about? and can you stick up a scrteen shot of your texture map settings so as we can see what you have going on there? It could very well be a case of the mapping co-ordinates have been flipped or some such thing...

From the back pic, it looks to me like the UVW is planar. That's bad for curved surfaces like cylinders and such. Causes "stretching".

I'll get the pics up when I get home. I don't have the .blend file here at work plus my comp runs blender much better than waiting for this POS.
