Texure preview screen to view all of my current textures would help a great deal. Right now I am wasting a huge amount of time sifting threw literally hundreds of textures looking for the right one. I dont have hours these days and I am realy feeling the pinch of what I can do in SL say in an hours time. If it takes me 30 min to build a simple object and another 30 min searching for a texture for it a simple object that should of taken 35 min, in reality takes an hour or so.

Who is in favor of a texture preview window?

I like this idea too... BIG time saver, especially for linked objects with similar textures... what would be even better is a way to thumbnail view textures before you pay to upload them... hey its not quite temporary upload but its closer :P

This and a temporary upload feature would be a great help...texturing can improve graphics so much, but it's so hard to work with...
