Update: My pixel art project led me to a gem from '96 that's still online

So I was digging for pixel art tutorials and stumbled on this site from 1996. It's got all these old-school techniques that still work, but my buddy says it's useless compared to modern stuff. I think there's charm in the vintage approach, but he's all about current tools. Curious where you all stand on using abandoned sites for creative work.

A coffee shop flyer led me to an amazing local pottery site

I was grabbing a latte at my regular coffee place last week and saw this handmade flyer tucked by the sugar jars. It was for a local pottery studio, which got me thinking about how I always see the same stuff online. So I went home and looked up the website, and man, it's packed with cool tips straight from the artist. She has these short videos showing her process, which really helped me understand the basics. I ended up ordering a little vase from her site, and it's now my favorite thing on my shelf. It got me wondering how other people find neat local spots without relying on apps or feeds. Have you all stumbled upon anything good lately just by keeping your eyes open?
