Exactly right.


The important part in designing isn't the how-to but rather understanding the

concepts involved.  Once you have the concepts straight, implementation 


Agreed.  But when I responded to this thread by changing the subject, because

I felt it was somewhat OT to tracking, I meant to question the mentality of

trying to nullify design suggestions for the mere reason of not submitting a

prototype.  Now, prototyping is a great way to refine your end-product, but

it's a terrible waste of time in terms of articulating design-goals.


IMHO, in the interest of keeping ahead of the competition, we should

encourage people to express their design suggestions instead of discouraging

them.


Thanks!
