[sldev] [HELP] getting UUID for uploaded texture in viewer

[Stan Vernier]

Your coworker is in the right direction, but my current problem is how to get a
hold of the pointer to the texture.  I can see how to filter the inventory so
that only the texture I want shows up with a unique key as a file name, but not
how to get a pointer attached to it.

Thanks for the help so far.
