Texturing problem

Hi.

I've tried to google and search forums for the answer. But I can't find it anywhere.
When I apply an color/texture for my object, only my wireframe gets the color, not the Object itself.
Anyone have any clue?

I've tried that as well. And when I press the 6 button, it's like the picture shows.
When I press the 5 button all I get is the standard Blinn color.

You are right mate. It does. The object gets an checker pattern. But when I try to assign the textures/colors it shows up just like the picture. Guess I have done something wrong with the UV's then?

When I press the 6 button. I get the textured/colored wireframe like you see on the picture. When I hit 5 I get the standard blinn color.

When I do this with the checkers pattern, I get the standard Blinn color when I push the 5 button and the checkers pattern when I press 6. Tho not only the wireframe is checkers pattern, but the whole cube.

I really appreciate your help Daverave. I can't thank you enough for helping me out with this

You also don't need to be in high quality. Most people won't notice any real advantages. (It's also harder on your machine)
Imagination is more important than knowledge.

One must admit though it is a very cool affect! Possibly a nice way to present wire frame.

Glad you got it sorted out. Thanks Dave and Jay.
