comment CS5 export layers as files no number sequence
While I dislike the numbering as much as you, they do make sense in addressing layers with identical names. So for me, renaming them with a small app afterwards is part of the workflow now.

comment What materials should a web designer using Photoshop send to a developer?
I agree, those details should all be adressed. I was covering the basics from a designers point of view. For me, these details have been worked out collaboratively though in the past instead of me dictating what happens. It depends on the work relation of developer an designer but I personally like to work in a back and forth way trying to combine design and coding requirements to find ideal results.

comment How to convert every pixel of raster picture to square objects in Illustrator?
I have been looking for a solution to this as well, Thanks a lot! SO far I only found "just use Flash".

comment Screenshots on Mac Monitor Widget
I have seen this too but can't really comment on the developer side of it. From a graphic point of view it's a merge of 2 screenshots, the app and the empty desktop. Here is an example: realmacsoftware.com/courier

comment Software recommendations for PDF layout review
I found that this feature has to be enabled first. Something like "extend functionality".

comment How does one turn a white background transparent in Photoshop but keep transparency?
I prefer the masking method as well. But I'd like to add that that leaves white and gray pixel on the shadow. So instead of using the original image, I apply the mask to a solid black layer, ensuring the shadow to be made of one color and transparency alone.

comment Is there a way to extract the pantone colors from a scanned image?
The device you listed and the Pantone Guide are the only options I can think of.

comment which colors do I use for zebra striping
I too would go with existing ones. If your table is already light blue, use white or a brighter version of the light blue to contrast the lines subtly. Again, it all depends on the color palette already in use. Are there grays you can use that are used elsewhere in the page?

comment Should I use specialist “titling” fonts for headings and titles?
The provided link gives some very good answers. What exactly is your question? Or are you simply sharing this info?

comment iOS App Icon design - the rounded corners issue
This is an interesting approach. It won't work for every design (with corner highlight e.g.) but it's worth a try.

comment iOS App Icon design - the rounded corners issue
Thanks for all the details. I have of course too researched the correct radius. I guess it helps most to know others work the same way.

comment Logo design issue
This question might not fit because it's a brainstorming question. Having said that, I suggest to you to not focus on the very general term of marriage but on the companys quailties. What is their philosophy? What sets them apart from the rest? What do they do better? Do they have a motto? What makes them unique? Do they offer a service others don't? Is there anything special how they do their work? Logo design is often more a research task than a design task. Hope that helps.

comment iOS App Icon design - the rounded corners issue
Thank you. I have found these and similar templates. I am actually pretty well prepared in terms of dimensions and corner radius. My question really is directed specifically at the anti-aliased corners. Should I edit my question to make that more clear?

comment How to place files to photoshop without scaling?
I guess what I want you to do is compare the resolution of the files.

comment Scale layers in a psd file by 200% for retina iPad
Yes, but you can also change this in the Settings (Cmd+K) for it to work on e.g. transformation.

comment Photoshop CS5: duplicate layers with “smart objects”
How to do this has been answered already. I just wanted to add that maybe groups is a better choice than smart objects in this case as this seems to be defying the purpose of smart objects. just a thought.

comment Font used in 'Home Team: Global Domination' game board?
The reason that you don't get results is most likely because the image is way too small and blurry. Which will hinder people here just as much.

comment How to go about creating an Icon Pack
As you can see, there are many options. Let me also mention SVG as Browsers start to support this format now.

comment How to go about creating an Icon Pack
@plainclothes: good additions, the reusing of shapes, colors and styles does make a big difference.

Illustrator PDF would work too. I simply saw it more often in EPS.
