The design, (which includes the look and feel, user experience, and information architecture) of an application can often be the determining factor in the overall success of the application. Given this level of importance we would like to know how you create the design of your applications? Is it something that you do yourself? Do you use a professional agency?

As always if one of our choices doesn't fit your situation or if you would just like to give your opinion on the importance of design, please leave comments.

It's not that easy...let me explain...
UI Design, Database design, well, pretty much any technical design is done by all the "experts", which includes, well, just about everyone in IT. The SQL developers tell us how to design our UI, what coding architectures to use for our front end, etc. The CIO asks for a wireframe from me, then explains why everything I've designed won't work - how it should have more right-click menus, and instead of two buttons, there should be one button with two menu items, etc. etc.. It's pretty laborious and frustrating. Instead of letting the users tell us what they want and how they want it to work, we just do what the man thinks is best.
Hello,
I'd love to read more, but the link to Rich Tretola's poll isn't resolving correctly.
Thx,

I just fixed the link.
We do it in-house and look to get to a prototype for usability as quickly as possible.
Generally, after sketching the general flow on paper, we design all of our front-end work in Flex and then pass commented MXML / CSS to our developers to tie it to the backend. It's worked out much better than wireframing as the end result is exactly what we've designed.
A lot of times, we can catch things just by interacting with the previewed MXML (before tying to the backend) in the browser.
I just posted something on the subject:
