A 404 error is an error page that is shown when a page requested does not exist or could not be found. An example of a 404 error on Scratch can be viewed here.
On Scratch
404 errors are displayed when one searches for a nonexistent or user, a nonexistent or removed project, or a nonexistent page. If one searches for a user that once existed but their account has been deleted, it will return a 404 error to everybody except for the Scratch Team.[1] Attempting to visit unshared projects now also returns a 404 error, although this previously had a dedicated page.[citation needed]
The text, "Whoops! Our server is Scratch'ing its head" is displayed, along with a picture of a puzzled Giga with a magnifying glass and the text, "We couldn't find the page you're looking for. Check to make sure you've typed the URL correctly,"
Image
The Scratch 404 page did not always have an image on it. In December, 2009, the then-Scratch Team member andresmh asked for an image to adorn the 404 page.[2] The chosen image was made by the Scratcher DavidTy.[3] He was credited with the creation beneath the image on the page.
In Scratch 2.0 this image was replaced with a desaturated gray image of the Scratch Cat,[4] then on December 1, 2014, the image was replaced with Giga with a magnifying glass.[citation needed]
