wait wait wait you mean to presentation files go directly to production once approved? Thats just impossible. i mean I make 50 concepts in a single day and they pick one but I require 1 month to clean up that file. Thats just how things are. And clients are always understandable. They rush for concepts but they wait until I say its done. Just like programmers who does exactly how it should look or work.
- again, it depends on the situation and dev platform. (assuming we are talking about online content). sometimes they need a day, while other times they need weeks to push.lvl_13
- weeks to push content. ah, the joy of instant gratification. up one second, down the next.lvl_13

try working with a man who uses photoshop as illustrator. as in switches auto select and show bounding box on and literally just clicks things to move/edit.
the mofo has about 500 elements floating around one document in completely random order. no smart objects, no groups, no masks, no names no fukkall. It works fine for him but I suffer badass!!
you'd love it, mate.

why would a designer not produce the raw html templates for you to work with? if you're working with designers who dont at least know html and css for web work you need to change your designers!
- I don't know html or css and web work is about 20% of my jobmonospaced

lol, yeah, designers should know css and html and aftereffects and as3 and javascript and 3dstudio max and ruby and dovetail joints and apache server configuration at least.
- yeah, who cares if they can make it look goodmonospaced

Designers should be able to code HTML so they don't design something fucking stupid/impossible but they shouldn't have to code it thats just a waste of time.

Designers should know the possibilities and, more importantly, limitations of the code and web techniques used nowadays, and not actually have the knowledge to code it. You have front-end developers to do that in less time at better quality.
- Exactly. Anyways, there isn't much on the web that can't be done these days.monospaced

I'm with stewdio. I typically have 500+ layers (easily) in any given web project. I don't give a fuck who touches my files next. I keep my shit organized for my own sake.
- totally, and putting that time in early makes the process faster in the endmonospaced

I am an old lazy ass designer... I like to leave my work files as messy as possible, so other fuckwits can feel my pain!
I should have been a dancer...

you know what I hate? Anal prissy ass designers who make everything so damn neat and organized that it looks like a machine made it. I used to have these designers working for me like that and their FIRST ideas always came in so polished it was like they thought they would just be accepted as is....DONE!!!...perfect!!!!
I would ask for variations, or a new idea and they would give back the exact same file, but in a DIFFERENT COLOR!
I was like, mess it up boys! play! try something different! and there was always this dead silence. but man, their files were really really neat.
- LOL... Preachnecromation
- Apples and oranges. Or is that pears and bananas? But organized? NEVER!Geith
