Designers are asked to bring questions about CSS and their role in creating the template. Since this may be new to you, I wanted to ffer an opportunity for designers to ask questoins.

Here are the steps I follow when I decide to use a template, and need understand how the site is constructed.

• Try and make up a design which uses as few images as possible and reuses images whenever you can.
• Nudge elements if needed so the slicing is efficient and simple
• name all slices so images can be located easily
• use alt tags on all images
• refer to the storyboard for the link locations
• optimize images as gifs or jpegs as needed.
