- | The texture will import completely out of scale and often rotated 90 degrees. To correct this, we need to use the UV Mapping tab. To have Blender project the new texture in 2D in the UV Mapping tab, we need to first select the entire object (A) in edit mode, press " | ||

- | On the left you can see the model unwrapped. This is the reason the textures are so distorted on the model- the UVs are not yet correctly positioned on the left. | ||

- | Choosing a single face on the model will display that UV on the left- the UV can be understood as a window- whatever is seen through the window will be shown on the model. It is now a simple matter of selecting the vertices, vertexes or faces on the left, and moving it to fit. It can also be scaled to fit, or two corners can be selected and moved into place as desired. | ||

- | The texture was also imported rotated in relation to the model. Select all the vertices and rotate (R) 90 degrees (after pressing R, press 90, or -90 and then enter). Then reposition the vertices again to fit. The fourth side can use any of the existing textures. | ||
