Re: [Usability] Sketching and Prototyping with a Firefox Addon

 

Yep. That's how I got my license. :) a native one (or at least something as integrated as XUL) would be great though. ;)

Fwiw, Balsamiq gives out free licenses to open source projects.

I have the same sentiments. Pencil is nice, but not as polished as Balsamiq. I use Balsamiq al the time (at work and play). A native version would be great because Adobe Air isn't the smoothest thing on Linux. One of the things that I'm not comfortable with is the lack of ctrl+c on Balsamiq on Ubuntu, which works fine on Windows.

I've tried Pencil and had very little luck.

While it's not open source, I recommend Balsamiq Mockups (an AIR app).
We should build a native, free clone of it :)
