Picture a white ceramic mug. Smack in the centre of the front of the mug I want to place a Starbucks logo. How the heck do I do that?

I have applied the usual UVW Map, made the ceramic mat, and placed the logo (PNG with alpha) in the Diffuse slot. This way I have the white ceramic bit shining through, and the whole lot still has a nice shiny ceramic feeling, thanks to the Falloff applied. But the logo is all over the mug. So what would be ideal is if I could ask the UVW Map NOT TO repeat the logo, or something.

Sorry, new at this texturing business.

Cheers,
Bernard

Sounds like you're using 3ds max. Try setting the UVW Map modifier to Cylindrical. Also the tutorials are a good place to start.
