@angeriod Look up "Blender 2.5 World Background texture image" on youtube for an example of how to do that.

Thanks! This really helped me out, but now the normal controls aren't working anymore! When i place a cube over the image i can go into edit mode, but then it won't let me grab the corners. I know it's command, left click, but it won't work. i also don't have a numpad but i switched it so i can use the numbers on the top instead. HELP!

@2001MuffinMan You right click to select a point to grab. You can type "b" to box select a number of points(vertices I think there called). Cross hairs will appear and then just use mouse to box around the vertices.Then type "g" to grab them.

what did you click on at 1:03?

@2001MuffinMan i think I was selecting right view. Or side view. Numpad 3 is the same thing.

@pinkytm1

I just tried that. I don't understand what is going on!

@Hooli020 Look up "Blender 2.5 World Background texture image" on youtube for an example of how to do that.

@Hooli020 Ah ok by f12 you mean a rendered view. What you're trying to do is set up a world background.

@pinkytm1 I know, but I can see the image in 3d view but not in the f12 view.
