texel

Short for Texture Element. Like a pixel, a texel is the base unit of a graphic, although texels make up textured graphics - graphics that define the surface of three dimensional objects. The base unit of the surface of a 3D brick wall would be a texel, while a two-dimensional wall would consist of pixels.
