[Closed] As a graphic designer should I learn webdesign?

UX = "User eXperience"

my designer friend decided to learn ajax/xhtml stuff, so his designs in his head could come to life much quicker than working with a developer to code the fades/transitions/effects.

This is only for developing ideas - once they have settled on a design, the developers then take control of the code - and rewrite it as they see fit. [b]None[/b] of his code goes into the final product without being reviewed by an experienced developer.

Muse looks interesting (for someone who can't code at all!) - I've used Freeway Pro for the odd site but its a bit clunky. On first impressions Muse looks very slick.
