Hi Richard, I would suggest that you work on some sketches/wireframes before contacting a designer. Designers are different than us developers. They are not really into abstract concepts and are usually very visual. Also, you don't need to be a designer to create a sketch.
You should probably check on Amy Hoy's presentation at the RailsConf07: http://slash7.com/ Also, if you defined most of your application's behaviors (using user stories) the designer should be able to grasp the concept of your application and might help you creating an awesome UI that will make your app the best app ever :) Good luck, -Matt On 6/14/07, richard apodaca <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Can anyone offer tips on developing Rails apps and working with Web designers? I'm building my first serious Web application with Rails and I'm thinking about getting a Web designer involved early rather than later. It's for a scientific application so I'm not looking for fancy graphics or effects. What should I make sure to do/know before talking to a designer and what should I avoid doing or worrying about?
