New way of texturing?

I had packed up my stuff and left sl as I was tired of the constant hassle with bugs and problems teleporting with the devs not fixing anything properly. But the last few days I've been back checking it out again.
I pulled out a prim but when I tried to change the texture it said it couldn't find textures, it said something like that. It's not like before where all your textures would show and you then picked the one you wanted.

Now, I wrote the name of the texture and then it appeared. Is this the new way you use textures?

I really hope not as this is no good like this. This is so much more troublesome this way as now you have to continually write in the name of the texture you want to use. Also when you click to open a texture to look at it it's also different, not like before.

Anyone please enlighten me on this subject and if there is an easier way to use textures

Thanks for any help
