i drew a pic of a car that looks cool and i'm pissed the engineer didn't build it right.
if you're a print designer and don't know the technical limitations of the printer, final output size, envelope dimensions, etc you are going to have a tricky time getting anything super sweet. you don't need to be the expert printer but you need to know a lot more than what's 'pretty'
if you're a web designer - to clarify - if you are designing anything that is going to be viewed on the web - you should have a working knowledge of browser limitations, when/why flash is good/bad, how fonts work, some ui/ux experience, etc. you don't need to know every little optimization shorthand technique but you need to know the basics.
