I am trying to understand why our model for the Best Western Hotel in
Whitmore Lake, Michigan has been rejected for the 3rd time for
"incomplete texturing"

See the following link to the model:

It is very possible we are missing something but there are such things
as white textures in the world. We need some specifics please because
we are spending hours on this.

You'll probably have better luck using the color GE imagery as the
roof texture, instead of the tiled texture you used. Similarly, the
tiled brick textures on the side and back of the building are almost
certainly rendering "fuzzy", making the reviewer think it's a color
instead of a texture. (To see roughly what it'll look like to the
reviewer, Make Unique on the back wall of the larger building.) That
said, given that it looks challenging to photograph the back of the
building, your modeling approach is correct; you're just running into
one of the limitations of the system. Extensive texture tiling
doesn't work very well. If you replace the roof texture and still
have issues, you can probably just appeal the review ("tell us why
we're wrong" in the model details page).

Hi Doug,

It appears as though your model was accepted on 12.9.09 is scheduled
to appear in this weeks release.

Happy Sketching.
