    I think there are a great many excellent designers out there who are extremely qualified to design for web, and yet lack substantive skills in translating that design to HTML/CSS.

    There are also a great many coders with design skills who lack the ability to develop good CSS for the work they do.

    I'm tend to be more critical of those without the CSS than of those who choose to not code at all. They chose to work in HTML yet fail to grasp the importance of CSS to the work they create.

    I am, however, less likely to hire any of these designers for any projects I work on. Although more expensive, getting a designer with solid end to end skills is fundamentally a better approach to staffing than breaking the work up into teams.
