How do you get your computer to solve the problem of "this text needs to be 2 points larger, a darker shade of red and 5 pixels to the right" without involving a programmer?

I've worked on the Avon AU website and we had a few hundred tasks like that. It's why (to link back to my current pet peeve) I'm upset that my relatives are unwilling to learn a tiny bit of web design because "it's too hard". There is a market for people who ONLY know how to do this. (There were two people in the company I was working for and my team only got access to them one hour every week - they were that busy.)



If this is true there's a serious mismatch somewhere.

There a lot of people who can do this work in the UK. Mostly they don't get paid very much at all.
