If you have a broken link on your site or the pages, which don’t exist any longer, have moved to a new server or have never existed at all, visitors will get an internal error message from the server. However, by default these messages aren’t that helpful
Whilst a well designed page can provide a means to find what they are looking for, wouldn’t it be great to display related information visitor might be interested or even redirecting them back to main page in a custom 404 page, here we have collected some 50 cool custom 404 pages just to inspire you, well not all are very informative some are simply an image or just with funny message but still it goes with the site itself..

God these are all so amazing!! I finally finished mine at http://riptapparel.com/404
Wow I really love the one from Blizzard!

indeed some of these are cool. dumping all 54 of them into your readers’ rss readers (without using a “more” tag or something like that to give control to us to decide whether we want to see them all) wasn’t such a great design idea, however, so i chose to unsubscribe from your feed after having waited for them all to load.
guess i’ll return in a month or so and see whether you implemented a solution for this (multiple (short and long) rss feeds that are easy to find and use, more tags and so on), because in general i liked your content.
all the best,

Hey that was a really nice post… I work in a website designing company and appreciate it a lot…
November 10th, 2009 at 7:46 am
All the designs are just simply superb…………..Bookmarked to my favs list ……..:)
November 10th, 2009 at 8:28 am
All these designs are fine, but in a way to improve user experience, my favoutites are those who try to redirect user, those which propose something interesting to reumse browsing on the site. Design is a thing, ergonomy is another !
