Answer 1

You should give Balsamiq a shot.

Answer 2

SketchFlow is a part of the Microsoft Expression suite.

Answer 3

You can try ForeUI. With ForeUI you can create wireframe, design interaction and run simulation for your web site.

Answer 4

Depending on how advanced you'd like to get with your wireframes, another option is ProtoShare. As you add pages, the site map is automatically created. When you drop in the navigation component, it automatically generates the navigation for clickable wireframes.

You can also upload design comps and overlay links and actions to simulate mockup pages. Or you can evolve your wireframes into a full-blown prototype with state actions.

Good luck in your search!

Answer 5

I use MockingBird for wireframe mockups, and Creately for everything else :)

Answer 6

For mockups check Pencil, it is open source prototyping/mockup tool. It is a Firefox plugin application, so it works everywhere (Windows/Mac/Lin).

Answer 7

You can try DesignerVista for High and Low-Fidelity GUI Mockups.
