+1 to mapping options being in material/modifier/whatever +1 to get shading influence settings out of texture panel and back into material (mockup presented by Doug Olivier)
I believe the presence of a stack of slots in 2.4 or a list of textures in 2.5 in the Texture panels is confusing. I know it is there to allow fast browsing of textures which is great, but maybe it would be better to split it into: a. texture browser: showing names + small previews b. texture editor: showing a big (BIG) preview of the texture, and its parameters/options Just an idea Regards malefico.
