How do you start designing your new websites. a) Do you create a psd file through Photoshop and then code a template OR b) Do you code the layout manually and then just insert the required graphics.
I personally follow the option b as it gives me more flexibility and convenience in working. But curious to know the benefits of option A as well. plz. share your input...

I generally work from the frame out in PHP. Come up with the main template for the code, figure out what I need in terms of pages, and move outward from there. Look and feel stuff is always the last thing I work on (other than having a general idea of where I'm going) because I find it's a heckuva lot easier to go back and tweak that stuff after the fact rather than having everything looking perfect before moving on to the next part of the site.

I will prefer with option A. One can get good layout options from professional and experienced designers for your site. but in this then you should clear your designer about your requirements and any other future changes/modification you might have planned for your site. This helps designer to make such good useful and flexible designs. And then once you finalize the design for your site, you can start creating the HTML code for that design and place images sliced from the finalized PSD design image.

Personally, I come up with the layout and graphics first - this is the bit I find really boring so prefer to get it out the way initially. After this then I will populate it with stuff
