If you say developers three times while looking in a mirror, Steve Ballmer will show up behind you and his highly-acidic sweat will eat you alive.

My job makes me pretty much do everything, from coding and database structure, to layout and graphics.
At first it was cool, but burning the candle at both ends like this the past few years has kind of made me hate both sides of the brain.
Though in all honesty the graphics I've been making for them have been complete shiite and mostly are just text.
They kind of suck the creativity out of you when you aren't allowed to do anything without a 20 Person Branding Team looking over your shoulder.

i get the idea that the designer would want to hand off his gorgeous masterpiece of a layout to someone experienced with coding to make it 'work', but a _developer_ is a person trained in seeing the beauty in code, not images.
Besides that fact, it's your job and mission as a designer to be thoroughly anal about pixels. You should see why it looks 'off' immediately and yearn for perfection. It's commendable.
Meanwhile, a developer is worrying about security and functionality and delivery and a bunch of other y's. The idea of stopping everything because the left margin on the 3rd header by the squiggly graphic should be 3 px instead of 4 becomes tedious and rediculous.
It's your masterpiece and you should be willing and capable of breaking out the brushes and scraping tools to ensure it fits your ideal. On a team project, I care to an extent, but in relative terms could give a rats ass.
When I'm dealing with a few thousand lines of code, your 1px margin issue can kiss my ass. It's nothing personal. I respect you and your insight about the difference between #FFFF00 and #FFFF11, but I just don't have the time or patience to run back and forth until you're sexually satisfied by the outcome.
