OK, so first, the box must be textured. I'm going to make it simple.

You should now see that your model has textures. You can find a good test texture by going to Google images, and searching for 'Brick.' I used the forth one shown in the results.

In some cases, you may have to create a UVW Map, but I didn't show how. Maybe someone else can give help with exporting and all! :D

Hope this helps,
