Stupid Question about Clearing Cache

Okay, I know about clearing cache. I do it all the time. I was wondering, though, if it's okay to clear the contents of the 'textures' folder in the cache folder? Will it delete all my textures in my inventory? Thanks!

Clearing the Cache folder cleans the textures folder every time. The Cache gets rid of textures you have seen before and reloads them when you enter SL again.

Also, nothing in your inventory is stored on your machine, it's all stored server side, otherwise, how would I see you objects (and their textures) if they were stored locally?

I always manually clear the cache by deleting everything inside the folder, including that sub-folder.
