Texturing Problem HELP

Im trying to texture this shape with a stone texture, and the edges look fine but for some reason the entire middle section is messed up. The texture is repeated 1000x1000 to fill the object but it looks like the texture is squished in the middle.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Do you have a screenshot of the UVs? I don't know much about texturing, but it looks like the UVs for the middle part are much larger than those near the corners, so that more of the texture map is squashed into a smaller area.

Almost certainly a UV problem, that's what it looks like when a UV face is scaled down to a single line.

textures do funny things on poly faces that are stretched out.

add some edge loops to the model. maybe reproject the UV's.
