Earlier this week, I introduced a new, innovative prototyping tool called FlairBuilder. I was happy to help Cristian Pascu get the word out about his new application. If you are one of the many that has downloaded the trial, I’d love to see what type of wireframes you’ve come up with.
After many trial downloads, Cristian and I decided to provide an opportunity to earn yourself a free license of FlairBuilder. Cristian was kind enough to giveaway 5 FlairBuilder licenses to those willing to participate in this contest.
How do I participate?
We would like for you to create a 2-3 wireframe flow based on a new or existing website or project. This is not only a great opportunity to really experience the excitement surrounding FlairBuilder,it is also an opportunity to win yourself a license. Once you’ve created your wireframe flow, use the comment section below to link to it from your own server using the live online viewer.
Submit an URL like this: http://www.flairbuilder.com/viewer/?url=YOUR_OWN_URL_HERE
The rules…
The rules are simple. All that we ask is to submit something that you’ll be proud of.
You must leave a valid email address when filling up the comment form.
Contest ends May 25, 2009, after which comments will be disabled.
These days as a designer/developer rapid prototyping has become a key component to getting projects in and out the door much quicker. To this effect, many prototyping tools have surfaced over the last year or so. A new rapid prototyping tool, FlairBuilder, created in Adobe AIR has just hit the market and first looks of it look pretty impressive.
What is FlairBuilder?
FlairBuilder is a cross-platform tool for rapid authoring of interactive wireframes and software prototypes. FlairBuilder comes with a set of 40+ (and counting) components for prototyping both web and desktop application. These are functional components and not mere images or mock-ups. A few components include a GoogleMap component, as well as YouTube or Vimeo video player, and even a WebCam.
FlairBuider looks to provide a usable solution to spending less time prototyping and more time developing. Not only does FlairBuilder make things easier for its users, its free online viewer allows your clients to view the wireframes that you have created instantly using the Flash Player plug-in.

Feedback:
Congrats to the author, Cristian Pascu, for taking on such an innovative project. If you happen to give FlairBuider a run through, take 5 minutes out to provide some constructive feedback. Your feedback will help push this project further in the right direction.
