Ask HN: Title for someone who takes ideas to pixel-perfect conceptual products?

from the ask-hn dept.

I hate titling myself "Entrepreneur and designer" or "Entrepreneur, designer, front-end developer". I hate titles altogether but they're sometimes a necessity. What I do seem really basic to me. I'm exactly like a carpenter who creates a new piece of furniture from an idea. In my case it's idea -> concept -> pixel-perfect mockup. I suppose I'm not alone. Do we need a new word for this?

I am having the same problem. This ZURB article struck a chord though:

like this? http://www.behance.net/?field=132 User Interface Designer, or without UX and IA then a graphic designer?

Plus the entrepreneurial aspect. Entrepreneur + UX Designer might be pretty correct but a very diffuse way to describe something that should be pretty basic.

The only other suggestion I have is to keep it basic but broad, like Multimedia Developer.
