Please use Firefox or chrome. IE is not supported as it uses HTML5 canvas element. Sorry for the inconvenience
Seems like it could be useful with some polishing, but I can't get past the Comic Sans.
@skylervm

You will be able to change the font. I just set the initial font but never got to change it. sorry about that

Is there a grid at all? It make it hard to line things up. I was trying to select more than one object, to try aligning, but I couldn't figure out how. No shift click or option click or command click.
Thank you for trying it out The grid is there under the container section http://www.mockuptiger.com/how-to-build-table-grids You can use the rubberband to select multiple and then use the align buttons in the top toolbar. You can use ctrl+click. Shift click is not supported.
Ah, sorry, I didn't mean a grid in a table. I meant a "snap to" grid so you line up elements like you were using 960.gs, for example.

Also, control+click isn't working for me (Firefox 5/Mac).

ok, yes snap to grid will be added soon. It is there but not enabled for this demo
Remove comic sans and it will be awesome. Make use of Google WebFonts.
thanks very much. I will replace comic sans tonight :)
Seems like a useful app and it works pretty well. Others have mentioned the font, but in general I think if you worked with a designer on improving the overally appearance and the design of the different elements, the app would benefit greatly.
thank you. not being a designer I tried to keep it basic. Can you point out any specific design/appearance issue. Is it the interface or the widgets?
I was thinking primarily the widgets. I'd check out a program like Omnigraffle or Visio to get a sense of the kind of objects they have there and see the visual style that they are using. I am assuming this is kinda meant to be a lightweight replacement for one of those.
