Inspirational 404 Page Designs
We’re all familiar with the dreaded Error 404- Page Not Found. They’re an inevitable part of running a website… directory names change, pages move and the 404s rear their ugly heads. But that’s the thing, they don’t actually have to be ugly. And although a raw 404 page is becoming a thing of the past, designers still tend to treat 404 page design as an afterthought to the rest of the site.

Here is a great collection of well designed 404 pages that shows off a variety of approaches to beautifying the 404.
