Another example: "#34 Be familiar with browser compatibility" - this is just your, developer's job. I cannot imagine expecting a designer to know about IE6 limitations (and tons of hacks and techniques to overcome them).
This might be overstated. How about "know your medium?" If you, as a print designer, were tasked to design a bag for dog food, would you Photoshop your ideas, then tell the production guy it's his job to make it work? Probably not.
As a designer, you probably don't need to know every limitation of every browser, but at a minimum, you might want to work with the programmer and understand what browsers need to be supported, and whether certain designs would require three days of CSS hacks to work in a single browser.
- _johnny 15y agoOK, you (and other commenters) are right. It was an overstatement. I agree with your last paragraph.
