Questions from Twitter

• Tony Groff (@TGroff): I'd really just like to know more about their design process - #drupal never looked so good as @marmaladesoul sites, wow!
  • Do they start all sites with an in-house @livethemer distribution? Do they use style-tiles/mood boards?
  • Also interested if they design in-the-browser/Photoshop/Fireworks? Other #drupal design tool recommendations?thx!
