Here is a finished render of the model + sticker: http://www.flickr.com/photos/37576267@N04/4106260690/ The bottle seems to be a bit glossy.... Thank you for your help : ) Ooops, the video file exceeded the max size.

But, you need two maps for that to work. Using sticker.png image attached in this tutorial you will need to make one diffuse map and one mask map. Diffuse map you already have, just save png file to jpg or bmp, then, for the mask map you need to fill the part where the texture is in black, and outer part needs to be white. That way you are telling which part of the texture will be transparent. Black is 0 transparency, white is 100% transparency. Now, in your diffuse map in vray, you have two layers, first one will be your bottle color, but in the transparency you need to set the color to black, and put your mask map into m slot. The lower layer will be your texture. So, just put your texture to m slot. Hope this will help. If not, I'll record a video. cheers, and happy learning ;) well, I didn’t go through your video, but as I’ve seen you got the part with two diffuse layers right.

I recorded a short clip on testure mapping: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fDSds1nYdLg Ivan,

But in the end, it is all about solving problems. Now, for the texture mapping, you must set on your model (or just par of it - join the parts you want) texture mapping to plane. Or even cylindrical. Check this tutorial for texture mapping and rendering: http://www.rhino3dhelp.com/tutorials/rendering-light-bulb-with-vray/ well, for first timer, you could go through some of the first tutorials ;) But since you managed to finish it, that tells me that the tutorial is still suited for beginners, even though you had some problems.

Now how do I apply the image onto the model? http://www.flickr.com/photos/37576267@N04/4100411096/ Hello Ivan,

You already have two curves and two lines made, and just trim from front viewport your elipse surface and that upper surface. Just like on the image shown. you’re not stuck. just go ahead and read the next part…
