Most Web Designers, especially in this forum, seem to be code experts. You all have seemed like a very knowlegable resource and you know how code, navigation, and graphics should be done effectively.

I am not a coder, I'm trained in graphics. I believe that most people benefit from being experts at both creativity and technicality, but I am still not yet a coder.

It seems that as complex as coding is, graphic artists need coding specialists. Perhaps there are coders who need graphics specialists as well.

I have a freelance proposition from someone who needs my graphics abilities, not my coding. They want me to be creative and they want to code it themsselves. Wow. Perfect match right?

Do any of you work this way? Are you strictly a coder, do you make graphics and code, or do you ever get jobs that simply call for you to be creative and make graphics? How does payment work when you're the graphic artist but you're not building the site?
