Whenever i apply a material from a image the image is always tiled. but on your sketchup models its just the one image. How do i set it to not tile. or do i need sketchup pro?

If you right click on it and select texture (I believe) it will allow you to resize and skew the image however you want.

Yeah i can resize it but it never fits properly. and everyone elses seems to be perfect. i thought there mite be a way to just apply the image as one

2 things: it's really fidgety to get an image positioned/resized/skewed exactly right on a flat surface and it's heavily dependent on how the picture was taken - if it's a photo. it's best done with a photo taken perpendicular to the surface, not at an angle up or down, normal lens (not zoomed, no barrel distortion, etc.). I've had to go back and take a better picture several times, or distort the pic back into shape.
Thing #2: if you use the same texture on more than one surface and change it/edit it, it will edit it on all the surfaces it's on. So I usually save a different version of the pic/texture if i'm going to use it more than once.
