When I worked in a print shop, too many times I had seen clients take a lot of time to design a piece for print (or a whole campaign of items), only to not give the print shop enough time for printing, let alone pre-flighting, and then having issues crop up and their job printing late.

As a graphic designer, I am constantly looking and evaluating anything design related that I come in contact with. From menus at the restaurant, other business’ business cards, web sites to even billboards as I drive, I can’t help but look at something and appreciate what is working, and critique what is not.
One that really gets me the most is web sites.

But what makes a good designer? What traits should they have? Do they need to be creative? Do they need to have technical ability?
