Searching for concrete block wall texture

From what I understand, your origin point is coordinate based, not geometry based.
For example, if you create your texture and have the bottom left brick at 0,0,0 then that is where the origin point is going to be.
Now when you create a face to paint, if the lower left corner is not at 0,0,0, or on an 8" variation thereof, it will not "snap" to the corner.It seems you are doing everything correct, sometimes you just have to adjust the texture position.
I hope this puts your stomach more at ease... if not try this:

LOL!
That's a good one Boofredlay.I was creating a 4' cube and applying the textures to it, two of the faces were correct but the others were not, and this bugged me. It would seem logical to for a texture to have a default corner to start from (for each face), but as you say that doesn't appear to be the case.
So for those textures that need to be perfect at least the adjustment can be made.
Thanks once more.

Just an idea...
Tech Smith gave away version 7 of their Snag-It program (still available here and there). It seems to be quicker using it to grab a texture, save as a jpeg, then import into SU instead of using using Photoshop. It's built-in pop-up window makes precision selections very easy.Other screen capture programs with an area selection option should work as well.
For what it's worth.
