No support for textures at the moment. Feel free to add it to the
bug tracker as a feature request. I don't when we can get to it
though. Of course, it is possible to do this (in ParaView, 
single processor) using Tcl but then you are back to VTK programming :-)
I can give you tips on how you can get to the tcl objects if you
want. Also, it is really straightforward to add readers to ParaView.
You don't have to stick to Raw File Reader (which is vtkImageReader).
Look through the archive for a few messages I posted on how to add
new modules to ParaView using XML configuration files.
