Psd deliverables

slawcka · 10-09-2011, 12:07 PM

Hi, i'm newbie in web design, and i cant find anywhere information on basic things like - how should final psd look like when delivering for coding? how should layers be managed ? Blending modes? . Also i designed home page and second page which will be template for all other pages. So Do i need two psd for two pages? or how do i stack them in photoshop? And one more - i have Lorem ipsum everywhere, and sample photos(in testimonials for example) , articles. Will client be changing all this himself when he have CMS ? or coding firm will make all that? If you could answer these questions or guide me to place where i can find answers, i would be very thankful!

In the best case scenario, you should be the one who is coding the layout!

However, if you are passing this task to someone else, I would leave it all as is (maybe flatten some effects). Just organize your layers, use folders, and dont give someone a haystack of names like Layer1, Layer2, etc.

I don't quite follow? What do you mean by "content"? The content section of your website design?
