Am about to start a web project, i am fairly good with php and some necessary client side technologies i.e. css,js,html. I want to create a good looking web app however i have limited front end design skills.
I am thinking of hiring a professional front end designer to help me with optimizing the look and feel of my app.
I have never hired a designer before so i would like to know if hiring a designer would be a wise decision,
I also want to know how exactly a designer would work with me, is he going to create the whole UI for me, or he will create some photoshop blueprints with detailed information on the UI components(padding,colors,button sizes) that i have to follow while creating my app.
any suggestions and advice are greatly welcome.
Thank you.
