I think any team consisting of 2-3 people can't afford any person who has only one skill.

It's a pretty common evolution for a designer to branch out into UX, so if one is looking for a designer it would be natural to look for a designer + UX engineer.

Personally I'd take designer+sales or designer+sysop pretty happily, but those are fairly rare skill blends!

I agree, I consider myself to be somewhat multifaceted and it would be nice to find a cofounder or two who could also help out with multiple aspects of the startup.
