scaling image texture
I'm trying to add a file as a 2d texture on the face of a cube. All is well until I render and notice the picture is too big for the face. I can't seem to find an option anywhere to scale the texture so that the whole image fits on the face of the cube.

inside there right click and click UV and then move the UV to fit the image
another way u can also select the Face then go to the polygon tab --> Create UV's --> Planer mapping --> Option box (on the right) so inside there look at the axis of the face and simply project it
Hope This Helps

However, if you want more control, you'll have to do some UV mapping as stated earlier.
