Some useful tips from Chinwag on design tools for selecting colors and fonts on your prototypes. I like these kind of tools because I can play around with designs and then had off to a techie for proper implementation. I love seeing the look on their faces when a “business” dude is able to pull together a quick demo without their help.
As part of a recent trip to MSN Research Lab I picked up a copy of the Expression Studio design package. I have been playing around with it and it is a great tool for creating prototypes for products. You can actually use it to create rich websites but I have been using it to design my new mountain bike.
