Working with programmers

You've done a lot of work to create the look and feel for this website, and even built what essentially will be the interface for this website—at least from a graphical standpoint. Now it is time for programmers to take your images, and make them work together on a website. At a basic level they will take each graphic image you exported and then piece them back together—but not from within a graphics program. They will use HTML code to make this happen.

Then the hard part starts—they start coding links, dynamic content plugins that will pull content into the content areas and more. As a designer, you might also be asked to help do the layout for some sub-pages within this website (if the header, footer or sidebar changes). Or you might also be asked to help make the graphics for dynamic menus that might 'drop down' from the navigation bar we created in the example web page.

So what do you provide to the programming team?
