    Mocking up user interfaces? I don't think MS SketchFlow is available anymore. :sigh:

        Notepad? I think others around here use Balsamiq.

        You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

            Visio has that feature. On the free side, there is The Pencil Project[^]

            What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

              I use Pencil, which can be run as a FireFox plugin, or it's also available as a stand alone app.

                        Commercially, I use Balsamiq[^]. For my personal stuff, I use NinjaMock[^] - this has the added benefit of being free, as well as very good. The beauty about these tools is that you can target particular form factors with them.

                                  I use pen/pencil and paper. I find it helps me visualise what I'm after better. Mind you, in my younger days I drew a lot and was often asked why on earth I hadn't been a graphic artist.

                                      Last time I did it, I actually coded it during the design phase, with copious comments and stubs for most of the UI stuff that didn't call up a subsequent form. The finished product was almost a 100% copy/paste of the POC code and saved us a couple of weeks of time.

                                        I used to pop into Notepad to generate some HTML so I could render some screens for management to approve. That gave me the ability to have graphics, buttons, and dropdowns for them to play with.
