To be a good web designer is it also necessary to be a good graphics designer?

[Benjamines]

I know there are lots of other things that comprise a good web page besides graphics.
Good coding practices, good copywriting, SEO, optimized usability and so on.
But I`m wondering whether a lack of graphic art ability is a severe handicap to a career in web design.

No, as per my opinion it is not necessary to be a good graphics designer for a good web designer.

Creativity will come to your mind if you are a good graphic designer which is very necessary for a web designer.
