Web design is 95% Typography to typophiles, 95% graphic design to graphic designers, 95% usability to UX experts. In short, people look at and notice what they are interested in, but to the average punter each of these things makes a much smaller contribution.

Don't forget 95% functionality to programmers :)

In my experience, web design is 5% drawing the design on a napkin (or mocking it up in Photoshop or whatever), and 95% trying to make CSS do what you want. :-(
