Why waste the designers time?
This has nothing to do with talent..it has everything to do with communication.

How am I wasting my time when my main designer hits it perfect almost every time? I'd be wasting time if I spent 2-3 hours prepping a design project for him since he already has a fairly clear idea of what I want.
Couple weeks ago he built me a FPA. I had absolutely no idea what I wanted. I gave him some basic specs and things that I expected. He came back with a pretty good FPA, I had him make a couple text changes (took 5 minutes of my time) and bam, project complete and it only took 10 minutes of my time.
Had I planned out "exactly what I wanted", how much time do you think I would have wasted? A lot.
To me, a designer is more of an architect than a house painter.
