      Hey everyone,
      I'm having problems posting an image of a building on a side of my SU 7 model. Once I eplode the image after positioning, the underlying "white" side of the building comes through my photo image

        Try moving the image away form the side of the building first, then exploding and applying the texture.

            Could you post the problematic model?

              What I think is going on is that when exploding an image, a face is created which - in your case - is merged with the face of the house and the (default) colour overrides the image just exploded. Best would be to post the model like Remus suggests. You can also try to follow these steps;

              1. right click on the image > Texture > Position and (without doing anything else there) hit Enter.
              2. Select the Paint bucket tool and hold the Alt key pressed > Sample the positioned image
              3. apply the image material on that face.
                You may still need to position it a bit (use the method like above to get into the positioning menu)

              Gai...
