How to save texture? Ok, I have fully colored/textured a pretty decently sized hatchet I made in blender a few times now and each time I saved and closed my blender. When I reopen the blender file it is completely unpainted.... Being very frustrated what am I doing wrong? I've tried saving the image of the texture but it keeps telling me "invalid path:" and I can't see the rest of the error message. I think my problem is that I'm saving the blend but not the texture mapping thing. (sorry don't know the correct terminology for everything)
Try this: press spacebar and then type "Pack." Select "Pack all into .blend". See if that works. That will copy all the source files blender uses (in this instance: texture images) into the .blend file. I don't entirely know if it will work, but I hope it will.
