Web Site Mock-ups and StoryBoarding?

brado77 asks: "I have spent years on the programming side of web development, but am presently moving into more of a design interest and focus. I am interested in what design tools out there for web site mock-ups and storyboarding that people find the most effective and fastest. No matter how skilled, programming is generally both too slow a method for this, and aesthetically clumsy (mucking through HTML to quickly change colors, layout, fonts, etc.). Photoshop is another route, but addresses its content from a structural perspective different from web layout. Has anyone found any tools specifically for mock-ups and storyboarding that are geared toward design professionals? (I can already sense the onslaught of "pencil and paper" and "whiteboard and marker" responses... :-)"

    Guess what. Photoshop had layers long before Macromedia Fireworks even existed. You can even link different layers, and manipulate them in groups. You can stack layers and apply effects to them individually.

    If you've already got Photoshop, learn how to use it.
