  Image mapping

Using POV, does anyone have some specific methods of going about placing a
bmp or whatever onto an object that will allow you to position it easily?
Whenever I use image_maps it seems to take me forever to get it
positioned/scaled how I want it.  Also; since the image map wraps completely
around the object once; how would I do just a part of the object?  example:
a box; I have a logo to go on the upper half of one of the sides.  How I see
doing this is by creating a smaller box; putting the image map on that, then
placing it to line up with the bigger box with say .001 higher (where the
image is).  But what about with a sphere, or some more complex object?

Any ideas/insights appreciated.
