Hi Rake,

Are you referring to design as in front-end development or design as is in visual design?

When I work with visual designers, two of the things I highlight specific to WCAG 2.0 AA that they usually are not used to keeping in mind are the contrast requirements (gray-on-light-gray is very trendy) and that the page must work when text is scaled to 200%.

Is that what you mean?

-Marco.
