As a designer your job is to interpret ideas into visual form, whereas as a pure gfx-guy you could get stuck with creating what the designer tells you to. The bad job market aside, the designer is probably a more competitive position. Depending on what part of the industry you're aiming at I guess there will be less designers (thinkers) and more gfx-people (doers) so the competition will tighten. From a personal view this applies well to me. I've got many friends that are programmers and web-dev's (and they actually all got jobs) whereas I'm in a position where I buy their services. In my office there are like 2-3 people with my skills but they are about 30 with more or less similar skills. See what I'm getting at? ;) But it all boils down to interest. You could get to be a pure gfx-nut with all the leverage and freedom in the world, so my thoughts about things could be dead wrong. But remeber this: Skills are always in demand, and one of the greatest skills to have is creativity! I'd rather hire someone with good creative skills and ideas than a gfx-program genius. If you are creative, you'll learn the tools you need... and most important you'll create useful stuff with them..
