Texture prob...

OK, i have applied a texture to a box, something like this (top view):
|------|
| |
| ^^ |
--------

The arrows are pointing upwards which is what i want but when i render in perspective mode the arrows seem to point a completely different direction. I have fiddled but cant seem to make the map stay pointing up in the perpective view.

Any ideas?

it looks like the texture is aligning to the view port. in the material properties make sure the coordinates is set to texture and not enviroment. like picture \/ try using UVW map modifier if you havent yet.

good luck
