Making Website Mock-Ups in Linux?

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the web-site-storyboards dept.

The Ubiquitous Web Designer asks: "I am trying to design a rather complex web page and am wondering if there are any tools which will allow me to make non-functioning mock-ups of each page so that a programmer can work from them. Obviously, it's hard to use the GIMP to make radio buttons, check-boxes, data entry fields, and so on. Can something help me design a page without much knowledge of HTML, or am I better off just doing it with paper and pencil by hand?"

  1. Sounds like Visual Basic by BigNumber · · Score: 0, Redundant

    It sounds like you're looking for something that you can just draw the screen the way you want it to look with all of the controls and such. It sounds a lot like the Visual Basic interface (or any of the visual programming tools). Obviously buying Visual Basic to do layouts is silly but there are other freeware programming tools that work the same way. A quick search came up with Lazarus.
