hi
this is because you have a so called terrain. There is also a .shader file and a .pcx file that will guide your q3map2 how to compile the terrain to your good looking terrain.
but in general I would really recommend you to use the search function or simply read some tutorials before asking for every detail here

You can t see textures in Radiant it is disadvantage of easygen , but when you compile and start your map in game you will see textures on terrain in game ( if you have good set paths for easygen .

To explain it in some more technical way: the texture you are seeing in GTKRadiant is a special compiler-only texture. It tells Q3Map(2) where to draw your terrain.
Your custom terrain texture itself consists of two components: one set of meta-shaders which describe the surface like you see it in Easygen and the game.
The other one is a .pcx file. This pcx file is what you are painting in Easygen when you turn on colour mode instead of texture mode. The colours define which of the meta-shaders are used at which spot on the terrain.
Before Easygen, this pcx file was hand-painted.
