Blender 2.5 tutorial - how to get your textures to show up in viewport and render

This small tutorial was made becouse someone asked me to explain how to get textures to show up in viewport and in render.
Blender's material editor works in a different way than most other programs, that's why new people often get confused by it. This small tutorial is meant to make your life a bit easier by telling you exactly why things work the way they work.
If you got any more questions feel free to ask in comments.

Youre probably gonna need to use pause to follow the video becouse it's kinda quick.

@CrowDesigns I tried that :/ no luck

@FriendKiller96 I think I found the solution.

Check if you have "Textures" checked in the Shading panel in the Render window

@CrowDesigns I wish Blender was easier to use, I mean if we Render it why would it take out the stuff?
