Can anyone point me towards a winforms prototyping tool?

winforms

I don't know if such a thing exists, but suppose you're at a meeting with a client and you're designing gui screens together. Is there some program out there that makes it easy to just draw a picture of the winforms screen, and maybe append little notes to the picture? I don't want to use the designer for such a thing. Hopefully if it's really good, then my clients could design the screens for me.

Anyone know of such a tool?

I've found Pencil to be really nice and easy to use. It can run standalone or on Firefox. It's free, open source and light weight!

this is a fantastic tool for doing this :- http://balsamiq.com/products/mockups

there's also a plugin to convert to winforms, however, I think its better to just mock it up using this tool, then design using the mockups as a guideline
