When I put a texture on my mesh it appears really small and the texture shows up on different places.

It also doesn't show up in the UV Texture Editor.

can someone tell me what could be wrong?

Well maybe your UV map is corrupted? Try saving you model out as DXF or OBJ and reimporting it and then check out the UV mapping.

if i knew how to upload pics i would.

i'm pretty sure there is nothing wrong with the UV mapping. I've UV mapped in maya hundreds of times before.

When i import my texture into maya it doesn't show up in the uv texture editor which leads me to believe something is wrong with my settings.

Have you tried making a new shader or using a checkerboard texture to test your map?

At the bottom of the Post reply ppage you have the option to attach a file.. in this case a small JPEG image would be appropriate.

Select all faces then in the UV texture window under Image set if you have more than one UV set. If you have more than one delete the extras leaving the correct one. Then you shoudl see the image and map in the UV texture window as well.
