Textures are used by Materials. So you have to go to the Material Dialog, duplicate an existing Material and modify it, also assigning to it the texture jpg of your choice. The folder containing the jpg must be loaded as a library.
About color: You have to go to the Pens & Colors Dialog to create new Pen Sets or modify existing ones.
