Admittedly, going through PS is silly. Try to use a different font for your body copy, and *fix every single iteration” and you know what I mean. The layer system is actually counterintuitive, because in CSS, we do not (usually) use layers that way.
Personally, I go from pencil sketch straight into css/html. I have the grid in my sketch already, and experimenting is indeed easier to do in CSS. I can’t ban Photoshop entirely though, I still need images and gfx. And frankly, until IE8 is as dead as IE6 is now, using CSS3 is not an option for me. Check out the mockup in this article in IE and you’ll see what I mean. I don’t mind pages looking differently, I do mind them degrading into a terrible monstrosity.
