"They changed the design layout without consent just to suit their coding styles/techniques."
"They dont understand the purpose of a good design. They just do anything they like, and then wait for what the client would say about it. And they still won't understand when I tell them the most important thing in web design is the visuals, like perfect colour scheme, keep it simple, readable texts, and has to look like a well-designed website! "
"Sometimes there are some things that can be done visually in photoshop but can't be realized through coding."
"Size issues of design artworks being made, He wanted me to fit my design according to his design without informing me about it beforehand. Hence, making the designs look squeezed when it was online. "
"I had a brief foray into Game Design during my polytechnic years. I was paired up with a Flash designer, who was fortunately very competent. We never did have any issues - I would just send him screenshots of what I wanted and some descriptions and he'd get it spot on. Sometimes he'd tell me if something was too complex, but that's about it. "
"Proposed design did not translate properly on webpage, there's usually problems with proportion of and size of text. otherwise, the developers i've worked with are quite good at translating my designs. "
"Actually not much of a problem i think... they may got it wrong in the first place like.. the looping times.. or the pace is rather fast.. but with further explanations, it's still ok. We know that they're not very aesthetically talented, so alot of things, we need to tell them specifically, cannot assume that they know.. like looping of the animations, or songs etc.. "
"Different levels of technical knowledge and overall directions. "
"If the developer is not a designer, simple details like alignment, font size they will not understand. And because they are not designers, they tend to just want things easy and get on with it. When asked to changed, they usually get annoyed and often do not understand what designers are talking about. When I work with a developer, usually I have to circle it out and show them or even call them up to explain what I want. "
"Usually its when the design doesn't look at least 80%-90% to what the designer wants to achieve aestheticly. Also the designer will only find the things that can be done and can't be done late into the project, usually too late to amend the idea which is always a problem for the account people. "
"Didn't encounter any problem before. They won't mess up the design; all you need is to pass them your design/layout and let them know what you will need for the buttons or navigation. They will have it done according to your request, unless you got yourself a fresh grad programmer. "
