Okay! so I'm trying to upload this mesh I've made in blender to SL, its a knock off ikea entertainment center. I can upload the mesh with out any textures just fine, but when trying to apply textures to that uploaded mesh it says there are no faces to select. you can see that here https://www.dropbox.com/s/20ir566cnprytq7/first%20try%20with%20the%20mesh%20in%20sl.jpg?dl=0

So then I figured I did something wrong with blender but after talking to people and looking around I cant find if i did or not. I even put the exportated dae in a different program (daz3d to be exact) and it works/looks as it should. here is what i see on my end https://www.dropbox.com/s/c9zuun6o5lhx5n9/what%20i%27m%20looking%20at%20in%20blender.jpg?dl=0  

after with playing with it, I now get "Failed to upload: Texture is empty" I'm racking my brain and am at a loss. maybe someone can look at my file and see if I'm missing something? I'm sure I am I just cant figure out what.  https://www.dropbox.com/s/sru61y7ko77a3rt/ikeaentertainmentcenter.dae?dl=0  

Here is the actual blender file and the uv maped texture. https://www.dropbox.com/s/idnx6grq5v0b6vz/uvtest1.png?dl=0   https://www.dropbox.com/s/2m6uydyhgsw4bks/entertainmentcentertesting.blend?dl=0

I got tired of not finding a good entertainment center I liked so figured I'd just make my own(I normally only deal in making/uploading skin textures so mesh is really throwing me for a loop. I made an end table and that uploaded fine. but had the same issue. wasnt able to upload it with a texture on it and there were no seperate faces on the table to apply different textures to)

There has traditionally been a problem trying to get the texture to upload with the mesh even though it LOOKS like that is an option. So most everyone I know uploads the mesh separately.

So the answer is most likely "not you" and "work around it" :D.  

I haven't actually seen a fix here on the forums in years but if there is one then maybe someone will comment. In general it is "better" to upload textures separately so you don't have to pay for things that aren't correct.  A bonus of that method. 

Good luck.
