You've turned on the new test texture. It's the black and blue checker icon in the UV texture editor. It basically allows you to see if there is texture stretching and pinching so you can adjust your UVs.

Yeah, I'd run a planar projection on it and see if anything pops up. Check the projection options and make sure you're not creating new UV sets with each projection also. I really need to stop replying before going to sleep.
