Description
Feature Request
Currently, users can upload custom decorations via the "Upload your own decoration" option in the Decorations tab. However, this functionality is not available for the Background patterns tab.
Proposed Enhancement
Add an "Upload your own background pattern" option to the Background tab, allowing users to upload custom background patterns/images similar to the existing functionality in the Decorations section.
Benefits
Increased customization: Users can create truly unique GitHub profile headers with their own background patterns
Consistency: Aligns the Background tab functionality with the Decorations tab
User flexibility: Allows users to use branded patterns, personal designs, or custom textures
Better user experience: Reduces the need to modify code directly for custom backgrounds
Current Behavior
The Background tab only offers pre-defined pattern options (squares, waves, geometric patterns, etc.)
Expected Behavior
Add an "Upload your own background pattern" button/section in the Background tab that allows users to:
Select an image file from their device
Preview how it looks as a background pattern
Apply it to their GitHub profile header
Additional Context
This feature would be particularly useful for:
Users wanting to match their brand colors/patterns
Developers wanting to use custom textures
Creating more personalized and unique profile headers
