System Information
Operating system and graphics card

windows 8
intel core i7-4770 @3.4ghz
AMD Radeon HD 7800 Series

Blender Version
2.71 hash: 6b6ea04

Short description of error
If i set up a material with textures in blender internal and enter texture paint mode the textures in my material get replaced by a new texture called "Diffuse intensity"

I then have to resetup my textureslots whilst in paint mode to paint on the textures i want to use.

Suggest that it should only add new textures slots on entering texture paintmode if the material has no textures.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Based on a (as simple as possible) attached .blend file with minimum amount of steps

open a default blend
add a material to the default cube
add a texture to that material and load an image from disk
enter texture paint mode
look in the properties tab... the texture i just added is replaced

Hi,

It is not replaced, just missing from the list.

Texture painting is just looking for valid candidates for painting.

That means:

Mesh has material
Material has texture slot with a valid image texture
Texture slot maps the image using UV coordinates.

The missing link in your case is 3

If you change the mapping type to UV you should see your texture :).

If you generate a new texture slot it always uses textures and UVs currently, only the default texture slot of default material suffers from this but I'm slightly hesitant to change it. If it was changed to use UVs and be of image type, then rendering would output black, which would confuse users, especially beginners. Deleting it would be better but that is not possible unless we substitute default blend which we try to avoid usually.
