You are lucky to hava designers to do that stuff for you... I don't at the moment. You are right, though, I do come a bit more from a usability and gui background than pure code-crunching. I guess the approach varies a lot with preference, previous experience and the surrounding team (if any)... but also a lot on the type of application one is developing.
My current work is an application with minimal gui so far. 90% of the requests never end up as a normal view. It is mostly an exposed API where service-calls go in and com out the other end. I am not very happy with the gui but since it is not really the no1 priority I can't justify a ton of work on cool javascript effects and ajax calls. I hope we will get to a GUI "module" soon. :) On Oct 24, 2:49 pm, Bernardo Vieira <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > I really dislike my work when I have "cheated" and built views after > > the models...
