Hi Kent, yes i changed to blender render, still the checkered pattern wasn’t showing….tried it again this morning. made seams, added a UV Map in properties, unwrapped model, changed to blender render before changing name of UV texture. Did everything saw the texture was not going onto my model again…then chose the texture from the bottom panel in the UV Editor and it jumped onto my model..ahhhhhhhh….lol been pulling my hair out for a bit…thanx for the swift reply…i will go through the process a few more times to make sure im doing it correctly before moving forward….thanx again. 🙂 loving your course…its a bit fast but the information is all there 🙂
