The "r" in "Jack Dorsey" renders funny in Chrome AND in my Firefox. Just me?
Not just you. We see that too. Not sure why though!

Almost every designer I know implements in photoshop. For prototyping, its either gomockingbird, balsamiq or some quick HTML (plus the odd photoshoping) to simulate interaction.
As a designer, I've never "implemented" in Photoshop. Ever. Illustrator, yes (a long time ago), but there's nothin' like coding your own design. In fact, I design entirely with HTML/CSS (using the Live CSS Editor feature of the Web Developer add-on for FireFox) and use Illustrator to mix and pick colors.

#63I almost never define a fixed width for elements. Here every single element has a fixed width.

#64Are you guys looking into methods that don't apply widths and pixel-perfect margin/padding to everything? Obviously much harder, but until these converters can do that they just aren't substitutes for handwritten CSS. I almost never define a fixed width for elements. Here every single element has a fixed width.

I always find this sentiment funny. As a programmer, and one with 15+ years of HTML/CSS experience, I find it much easier to layout a website design in Photoshop. That being said, I usually jump to markup about 2/3rds of the way through the design. Everyone has a different comfort level, I suppose.

#66As a visual designer who has learned to code, I feel that this is not a good idea for the simple fact that it outputs non-semantic HTML (divs are not semantic HTML) and CSS "class soup". I am all for getting more designers to output code (thus saving a lot of developer time), but these sorts of things not only reinforce non-semantic (& unmanageable) coding practices, but also handicaps those who use them by not teach…
We do worry about semantic HTML. We are working on a editor which would allow users to modify tags as well.

#67About the quality of code that it generates : I don't mind setting some on in my team to work on optimizing the generated code , but having some base html/css to work on is definitely a plus point.
Oh, BTW, You wont share my PSD with any one else right ?

#69When I click on "Try now" I get a "Bad Request Error 400". Could it be because of me being signed into multiple google accounts?
