I know Canonical designers use a lot Balsamiq, which is very powerful. It
isn't free, but you can have a free licence by contacting them for free
software design.

Hi,

My preferred prototyping tools have been Inkscape (using javascript to
introduce interactive behaviours, where required), Impress for testing
basic
state transitions in a scenario (either with screen grabs or mock-ups made
with the drawing tools - or both)

I recently rediscovered Pencil, a prototyping tool that seems to have
started
as a Firefox plug-in. I think the standalone version has more to it. I
tried
the standalone version and I was pleasantly surprised at how quick it is to
mock things up. Also, sharing the files allows a degree of collaborative
design. There's no interaction but for panel design, it's great.

See http://pencil.evolus.vn/en-US/Home.aspx

I know tools don't shortcut the value of years of UI design experience but
at
least they might help consistency and collaboration.

(I'm not allied in any way to the product; just reporting, having used it a
bit)


Cheers,

Greg
