Let's keep this on the list.  That way more people could possibly help
and these posts might turn up in searches later.

Can you show the few lines of code you used to write the input of the
vtkTexture?  Something like this should do the trick (untested Python,
translation to C++ straight-forward):

writer = vtk.vtkPNGWriter()
writer.SetInput(imagePlaneWidget->GetTexture()->GetInput())
writer.SetFileName('thetexture.png')
writer.Write()
