Honestly, my hunt for the perfect texture sample took a ridiculous turn

Tbh, I needed inspo for a background and got obsessed with finding this one gritty photo. Ngl, I spent hours searching online and even tried to make it myself with coffee stains. Honestly, has anyone else gone way too deep just for a small part of a design?

Scan free texture sites first, then tweak something close if needed.

I mean, that coffee stains idea, did it end up being worth the hassle?

Did the coffee stain fix actually solve anything or just create more work? It reminds me of those clever ideas that seem smart but aren't practical. Like using toothpaste to clean shoes, it might shine them but leaves a weird smell. We keep falling for these shortcuts because they promise easy results.
