Hi ryan constantine, you recently wrote in moray.win:

Yes. 

Think of the textures in the Material Editor as declared textures.
The transformations that you add to a texture in the Material Editor
are applied to this declared texture.

When you attach a texture to an object, an instance of this texture is
created (it references the declared texture). This instance has its
own set of transformations, just like an object does. To change those
you need to select it and then treat is an object (i.e. use the normal
scale, rotate, translate methods. To select this texture instance,
first select the object whose instance you want to transform, then
either press Alt-T or in the menu choose Scene|Select Texture or if
the texture has a proxy (i.e. the green approximation) select that
with the mouse.
Now you can apply transformations as usual. This will only apply to
that specific instance of the texture.

Hope that's clear (if not, ask<g>).
