    raf's right in a way..... the old 1999 slice and dice PSD to ImageReady to Tables to Dreamweaver meant you could go from Photoshop to website in 20 minutes per page if you worked within certain limitations and knew how to make verticals expand via table background cells...

    but of course, CSS nazi's didn't just ruin that, they got us to remember that, yes, the web WAS INVENTED BY A PHYSICIST, not a designer..... which wouldn't be bad at all if browsers didn't seem to be more like quantum mechanics than anything predictable....

    but seriously, CSS and browser bugs and SEO are classic barriers to entry that allow you to charge $$ once you get them and get beyond the client hiring his nephew to do it all....
