When we create texture using photoshop, we have select the DPI (resolution) value too after select the width and height using pixels or inches etc.

As far as I know, DPI is the relationship between an image's pixel dimensions and the physical size it appears. That means it really matter when printing and image in real 3d world.

I just wondering that is there any situations that DPI actually matters in SL as its some kind of artificial 3d world?

Don't matter. The dpi is useful if you want to print an image. What matter are the pixels: the more you have, the more memory texture consumes and slower the game becomes. It is therefore important to make small images and if it doesn't contain transparency, save it in 24 bits.
