If it shows up fine when placed, then it may just be that the thumbnail needs to be refreshed. Try holding down Ctrl and right click on the object in Buy Mode (specifically where you have circled red in your picture). This should make the game regenerate the object's thumbnail for the catalog (all three places that you have circled).

I don't mind if you call me "MSD" or something for short.
Perhaps someday I'll have leisure time back...

Check out Invisible and flashing blue custom objects: Check List. If you still need help, post the object here and maybe someone will see what's wrong.

malysz9999, does your item show up correctly in game and it's just the thumbnail picture that's wrong? If that's the case I had the same problem. I posted about it here.

The solution (for me) was simply to add the subset name as a prefix to the name of the texture. For example instead of naming my texture [name123]-white I had to name it [name123]-vanity-white. I hope that helps.
