之前在 Mobile01 就有這個主題討論串「設計師就設計師 為什麼要叫美工呢?」,本人理所當然地戰下去…

不說結論,單以最簡單的網頁設計來說,和我合作過的不下十人,只是每個幾乎都沒底子;難道真的只要會 Photoshop 合成圖庫、Dreamweaver 拉 HTML 就可以自稱設計師?

隨手抓 Crowd Favorite徵人條件來比較,看看自認為可以擔任「網頁設計師」的你有幾項技能符合。

Technical Designer / Front-end Developer
技術設計 / 前端開發

You should have experience with:
必備技能

  • Design for websites and web applications.
  • Branding and logo design.
  • HTML, CSS, web standards and semantic web markup.
  • Conceptual understanding of web services and AJAX delivery.
  • Adobe Photoshop / Illustrator.

Ideally you will also have:
選配技能

  • JavaScript and one or more JavaScript libraries (jQuery, YUI, etc.).
  • Some familiarity with PHP and/or other web programming languages.
  • Experience with WordPress themes.

什麼?很多技能不會甚至沒聽過?
那換個低階一點的職位好了

HTML/CSS 標記語言已經是基本盤就不提了,連 javascript library 也要會個一兩樣,甚至是後端 PHP 語言也要略懂;突然覺得,和我合作的美工真是他媽的太幸福了。
