PSD to HTML is Dead
It drives me totally batty to work on projects in which the designer assumes that their only responsibility is to provide a PSD file, which the developers will then turn into HTML and CSS.<p>I want to work not just with designers, but with <i>Web</i> designers, who intimately understand the workings of HTML, CSS, some JavaScript, and the implications for different browser sizes and versions.  Web designers speak HTML/CSS natively, taking these limitations and issues into account when they're creating their designs.  And if something needs to change, they can change the HTML/CSS that was created.  If the designer only knows how to work with Photoshop, every change to the site requires a great deal of additional work and communication.<p>I've sometimes remarked that a designer who uses Photoshop, but who doesn't know HTML and CSS, is like a photographer who refuses to actually touch the camera, and instead tells someone else how to aim, focus, and shoot.  (And yes, I'm aware that TV and movies work this way; the analogy is far from perfect.)  I want to work with someone who lives and breathes Web technologies, not who sees them as just another type of output.  I'm glad that this blogger made this point, and has indicated that while Photoshop might once have been acceptable, it no longer is.
