Illustration/icon for Page Not Found and Error pages

Hi Ben,

Do have time to work up something for Gallery 3's Page Not Found and  
Error pages? I thought it might be an opportunity to have a little  
fun. I don't think we need a fail whale, but perhaps something with a  
photography theme might be nice.

A few ideas:

Missing:

Empty photo album page, something like this, but without the image http://i.pbase.com/o6/81/676381/1/84422527.wrFckuH4.pumphousefullsoftSEPIApb2.jpg

Dotted outline of a portrait silhouette


Error:

#$@!

Cracked lens


Anyone else have any ideas?

- Chad

Sure, how big should it be? What screen should I use to overlay it on  
so it's in context?

My main concern is file size. You can go bigger than our standard icon  
size as long as we stay within the 20-40kb range.

These pages show a summary message and an expandable box to show more  
details. The image can be shown either inline, aligned left or right  
of the summary message. We might even consider a bg image if it in no  
way hinder text legibility.
