I was wondering if anyone else outsources their initial design for development (XHTML/CSS). Lately I've found myself sending off my PSD's to be developed by one of the many slicing services popping up everywhere.
I've done this for a couple of reasons. In the past, my role has required me to strictly design, and the development task was always placed on a developer. So, over time I've fallen a bit behind with my development skills. I'm not too bad with coding myself, but time-wise, it's much easier for me to outsource my work.
I enjoy reviewing the developed site that is sent back to me (somewhat of a learning-aid), and have no problems working with the code at the point, it's just the initial templating that I find frustrating. My goal is to be able to efficiently develop my own designs (time-permitting), but I am curious to find out whether other people use these PSD to XHTML services, and what opinions they have of them?
Some of the ones I've used have included:
- W3 Markup
- PSD Gator
- HTML Blender
