Getting the design right is important. But it's poorly communicated. For better or worse, programmers tend to be primadonnas who don't respond well to being told to move a button 3px (see seivan, et. al) for no reason. Furthermore, the exact pixel dimensions you create in photoshop rarely translate to the browser due to screen size differences, resolutions, etc. It's much, much more useful for designers to tell me something that describes the relationship they have to each other than the exact dimensions (e.g, "these elements should line up on the right" rather than "make divs 253px"). Obviously for things like spacing there's some element of eyeballing until it feels "right", but you can and should be working with design before stuff goes out to get those right. So yeah, it's frustrating as a programmer to go through these nitpicky details. But keep in mind it's frustrating because you didn't do your job of implementing what was specified. So maybe don't complain about it in a way that sounds like you refuse to do your job.
