For getting it from a package, package://pkg-name/texture.jpg
$(find pkg)... doesn't necessarily work because the client app (rviz for
example) may be running from a different tree.
The ideal is to have it grab it off an http server (hosted on the robot), so
that the client doesn't even need the same set of packages.
