When you send a PSD to the coder, do you leave in all the text and stuff you've put in as content, along with all the content images?

Yes, they have to know where things go as well as how they're put together in order to code it right. If you don't want to send the full PSD to your coder because you don't fully trust them, then I think you should find another coder

For most designs PSD files aren't necessary - they just make the coder's job a lot easier.

Also, if there are rollovers in your design... Make sure you create all of them; not just one.

One of my biggest pet-hates is sending a PSD back to have them designed, or having to create them myself. ¬¬

Same problem. I'll usually charge more, unless it's just text for the link and you can use the same image for all of them.
