On: Open source needs designers

[iambot]

i agree, as a designer/front-end dev, that uses github, git versioning works on css (~ my tone doesnt translate to text) etc, so yeah there is a breakdown when asking designers to use git, but to be honest i manage fine, so i dont see why others cant do the same :)

Because many designers don't know how to code :) That doesn't mean they wouldn't be valuable for your project.

implying i said they wouldn't be valuable... I am a designer and git is not coding, its merely about learning a tool that helps with collaboration, git/github being one of many. :)

I have no problem using GitHub and I agree with you it's just a tool.

I am just saying that to many it IS coding.

i think we're on the same page. i can imagine that "GitHub for Mac" etc, might end up helping those designers that feel git is an unfathomable entity...
