Funny Error Pages for Websites
If your website is going down for scheduled maintenance, you might as well have some fun with it! I though this one from iStock was very creative.

Creative and Funny 404 error pages
So instead of getting upset because I couldn’t purchase images ( it will put us behind in the morning), I had a laugh and posted this blog. I like Jay, he looks like he is working hard and I feel bad that he is working so late.
Jay also offered me a free promo code for iStock, so Im really happy about that!
