FIRST SAVE YOUR OBJECT then re-open it it should be selected pink outline or sumtin my comp screen STINX
ok go down to panels but dont clik it go right till you reach a grey shaded sphere (cicle) click it.
next go to the box that says links and pipe lines. if u see ther is a thing just beelo that says MA:Materials and then there are several sybols next to it clik on the x button (dont worry about what it did. ) then clik add new.
next u if u look a tad bit up and a little to the left you will see a red shaded sphere the button to the right is the button you wanna press then go to add new. next you see texture type go to image. on the far right u see a bar that says load clik it then find your texture. hit load then if u look to your right and you can see it. to see how it would fits on different shapes go back and click on the red sphere. to see your texture on your object hit F12
