How To Change Your WordPress 404 To An Image

If your theme is worth it’s salt you should be able to edit it’s 404.php file to include a custom 404 image instead of a boring old text one. This is just another way of making your blog unique.

Place the following code in your 404.php before get_header():

// @version 2011.12.23
// matches 'img.png' and 'img.gif?hello=world'
if ( preg_match( '~\.(jpe?g|png|gif|svg|bmp)(\?.*)?$~i', $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] ) )
{
    header( 'Content-Type: image/png' );
    locate_template( 'img/404.png', TRUE, TRUE );
    exit;
}

Of course it would be really cool to come up with your own!
