Hello tek-tips pros - here is kind of high level question for you.
I know that one of the prinicples in system construction should be the separation of structure, design and content. That is the whole idea behind css and themes in asp.net if I understand correctly.
Also if I am correct, typically designing and developing system are often two entirely different professions done by different people.
Assuming the preceding points are true, then here is something I don't understand:
If I want my asp.net 2.0 to look a lot more snazzy and I hire a graphic designer who knows nothing of asp.net 2.0 to do a really nice layout, am I limited to how I can control in the look and feel or my app because of the nature of the .NET framework?
In other words, the graphic designer would theoretically deliver a snazzy looking template to me in some sort of png or jpeg file, but then I would have to somehow apply it using .net css and themes in order to implement it, correct? This is where my understanding of the process is unclear.
How much work is that? I would think it is very differnt than appling a graphic designers styling regular XHTML - but I'm not sure.
does anyone have experience implementing someone else's design over your aspx code?
Where can I learn more on this topic?
