You can have tris but that shape is hard to resolve
Ok thanks Rich 
, I will try and sort it
That does look better Rich, as always with this sort of thing the client wants it to be triangular faces.

That look about right to me.
Tri's and poles are hard for any mapping method.
I'm not so fussed about Antarctica but Greenland isn't quite all there.
Ok so I have had a read through the thread and it doesn't seem like anyone is dumb enough to try what I want to do... 
I want to create a Icosahedron (triangular sided) globe. So I choose the spherical mapping and the UV maps appear to be ok but when I put the globe texture on the poles aren't quite right.
Is it because there aren't enough faces to map to? Would sub dividing help? or is it too low poly?
Here are the screen shots and skippy.
Thanks in advance
A friend of mine did this and her boss refused to check it, and just told her to send it to the client.

A burglar broke into a house one night.
He shined his flashlight around, looking for valuables, when a voice in the dark said “Jesus knows you’re here”.
He nearly jumped out of his skin, clicked his flashlight off, and froze.
When he heard nothing more, he shook his head and continued.
Just as he pulled the stereo out so he could disconnect the wires, clear as a bell he heard “Jesus is watching you”.
Startled, he shined his light around frantically, looking for the source of the voice.
Finally, in the corner of the room, his flashlight bean came to rest on a parrot.
“Did you say that?” he hissed at the parrot.
“Yes”, the parrot confessed, then squawked, “I’m just trying to warn you that he’s watching you”.
The burglar relaxed. “Warn me, huh? Who in the world are you”
“Moses” replied the bird
“Moses?” the burglar laughed. “What kind of people would name a bird Moses?”
“The kind of people who would name a Rottweiler Jesus” squawked the parrot.
An attorney arrived home late, after a very tough day trying to get a stay
of execution. His last minute plea for clemency to the governor had failed
and he was feeling worn out and depressed.
As soon as he walked through the door at home, his wife started on him
about, 'What time of night to be getting home is this? Where have you been?
Dinner is cold and I'm not reheating it'. And on and on and on.
Too shattered to play his usual role in this familiar ritual, he poured
himself a shot of whiskey and headed off for a long hot soak in the bathtub,
pursued by the predictable sarcastic remarks as he dragged himself up the
stairs.
While he was in the bath, the phone rang. The wife answered and was told
that her husband's client, James Wright, had been granted a stay of
execution after all. Wright would not be hanged tonight.
Finally realizing what a terrible day he must have had, she decided to go
upstairs and give him the good news.
As she opened the bathroom door, she was greeted by the sight of her
husband, bent over naked, drying his legs and feet.
'They're not hanging Wright tonight,' she said.
He whirled around and screamed, 'FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WOMAN, DON'T YOU EVER
STOP?!
