I like the checked texture. It is un-fussy.

I've mostly used uv mapping with mesh2 objects and with them you need to 
use a 3rd party program like uv mapper or Blender, to do the mapping.

With povray objects like spheres, cylinders etc you need to use a 
mapping that has a spherical or cylindrical projection.
So it depends on what you want to map to what.
