Hi Pragnesh

Firstly get the designer to read
http://www.adobe.com/web/features/zeldman20000821/main.html. I really think
this article cuts to the heart of the issue. A commercial web designer needs
to put the needs of their client and users way before their own artistic
ego. I really think that there has been a positive trend in the direction of
user centric design of the past few years, but if you find a designer who
feels that usability is cramping their "art" - get a new designer.

Again all of this comes down to target audience - some sites require art but
most require design. Also it is possible to have creative freedom and good
usability/accessibility/standards compliance - yes these things do impose
some retrictions but an artist needs to learn to work within the limitations
of their chosen media.


Cheers

Mark
