I finally managed to get a texture onto a cube sadly, but it is appearing incorrectly. as the below picture identifies.
Anyways, I am not sure what it could be. My first guess is it could be my uv mapping or my vertex positioning is off. If someone could check and make sure thats good. The first element is the vertex position, second is the color, and third is the uv texture.

My second guess could be an error that I am receiving as I run the program. But I don't know where to begin with that. The following is the description of the error .
D3D10: WARNING: ID3D10Device::Draw: Vertex Buffer at the input vertex slot 0 is not big enough for what the Draw*() call expects to traverse. This is OK, as reading off the end of the Buffer is defined to return 0. However the developer probably did not intend to make use of this behavior.

Not sure what it could be. but where is my vertex layout description
