I agree. A good designer who's also a good programmer is hard to find. The two fields require focus if you're to be very good in either. However, you can get a good designer with passable programming skills or a good developer with passable design skills.

Hi all,
I work for a recognized institution in kenya and we are looking for a web programmer in Php/mysql, has skills in graphics, picture animations, and can also be able to work on various databases for instance Moodle- e-learning platform.
He/she is urgently needed. Send me your c.v's the i will forward to relevant personnel.
Kind regards. susan Makhanu
Hello Susan,
Just read your query. ( Corrections are welcome ) The skillsets that your HR people have listed will be rare in one person as the requirements point to about 3 different talents/skillsets.
Breakdown of skillsets :
- Web Programmer = php,mqsl with Database experience = correct
- Graphics/Picture Animations = graphics artist = correct
- Moodle- e-learning platform = specific CMS = experience skillset needed to cater for bugs, customizing, security and implementations of the CMS system.
A graphics artist cannot be a programmer nor vendor specific individual to the level expected from that skillset. A web programmer cannot be a graphics artist to the skill level expected. It may become a case of trial and error or dvd libraries being used to complete the work. I cannot imagine asking a graphics person to run an sql command to correct corrupt tables...
If I were your organization, I'd get the skillsets anaylsed for the project. Then get the correct individuals with those talents to successfully do project implementation. It will be a breeze.
sharing my thots... :-)
Rgds.
