PNG mirroring on all sides of my 3D model. Help

I am trying to place a PNG as a SINGLE decal on only 1 side of my 3D Shape. When I drag and drop my PNG to the desired location it ends up mirroring on all sides?? Does anyone know how to turn this off or have any ideas what is wrong?

 

Thank you!

Try "Generate UV's" for your object. There is also "Export->Selected object UV" command for generating Ps files and using them for placing decals exactly on custom location. 

I  have recorded tutorial about "Selected object UV' for Dimension but it the same as for Stager. Hope this will help.

Thank you for the response Ares,

What seemed to work is once I applyed the PNG "Decal" to my object and it was mirroring on all sides, I then clicked on my object and selected "Generate UV's" like you said. This allowed me to drag my PNG to one side of my model. 

 

Thank you!

Great. Generate UV's seperates UVs that help to correctly place decal.
