Materials: A Success!

I was tooling around in Metasequoia earlier today, thinking how ridiculous it was that none of the textures would load for me in Meta, while when I could get textures in A:M, I couldn't export them in a way that Pepakura could read... when I realized I was the one being stupid (probably not all that uncommon an occurrence... : )  Anyway, the Material panel of meta simply
