The Best of Error 404 Pages
Posted on 07. Jan, 2010 by Web Design in Roundups
If you going to have a jazzy website design, then why not have the default error 404 page that your browser throws up? Why not have your own one. Many websites have made a custom error 404 page. Here is a collection of some of the ones I like best.
Let me know what one you like the best. I think the Heinz empty bottle is one of the most creative. Also, I’m sure there are many other cool error 404 pages out there and we would love to hear about them. If you find any more creative ones, please drop us a comment!

Yours looks nice. Maybe you could add in bold error 404 somewhere because the error doesn’t really stand out that much.

Love it when developers get creative with 404 error pages! I vote for the fortune cookie. Here’s a 404 page I put up recently:

A little absurd, but definitely funny. (I interned at this shop, or I probably wouldn’t have seen it)
