By new, I meant functionality - buttons, elements and so on.
Well it's only ridiculous to ask you to do content entry if that's not part of the scope. It's definitely a waste of time but if it wasn't specified, they could well expect you to do it as part of the "build" in which case you are going to have to argue otherwise.
Generally copy/content & PSD's are kept separate here - because 99% of the time we don't have that content before design is done. Content entry is also listed as a line item, and is managed after build when CMS integration is done. It really depends on the kind of site being built, and how you are building it.
ie. a flash website you really need the content before hand (to design it peroply) unless it's supposed to be a content heavy site in which case it's always indicative. In the same way with html you wouldn't drop the content of an entire blog into a PSD, it sounds like they are being a bit unreasonable to expect you to trawl PSDs...?
