Paint bucket trouble

bhnida

hi to all SU freaks
here is a bunny question, me being too stupid to use the paint bucket.

i have no colors in it no materials no metal surfaces like stainless steel ore bricks
how do i get them ore charge ore install them.
i found out how i can arrange own colors mixes but i fail to apply them to surfaces.
what can i do wrong on applying them. (i know to much can be wrong to tell here LOL)
i select the bucket and then want to point with it on the surface i want to color.
but it acts like nothing happened. like it is not reacting to my klicks

thanks a lot to all improofing with there answers my SU skills.

the last info was just great.

I'm assuming youve seelcted the colour/material you want to ue before you try and paint...

You might be in monochorome mode, if you go view->face style->shaded with texturesyou might get the colours back.

i did like oyu sugested and i was "of cource in monocrom"

changing solved my problem imidiatly.

interesting to know as soon i changed to the right mode "shaded with textures" it worked
