4. A Plea for Photoshop–Browser Harmony

In Chapter 3, I presented the case for a browser-based approach to web design. In this chapter, I’ll take the browser approach down a peg, but I don’t want to diminish its importance in a responsive workflow. The browser is still the centerpiece of what we’re doing. But we need to work Photoshop back in to the fold—and not just because we’re Photoshop fanboys and fangirls. If it didn’t make sense to include Photoshop, I wouldn’t waste your time advocating its importance in the responsive web design (RWD) workflow.

The good news is that Photoshop, more so than any other tool I can think of, fills an important role missing in a browser-only design process.
