What’s up, folks. Does anyone know of some decent flowchart software (preferrably freeware) or does photoshop have a flowchart feature or plugin? I want to start planning and mapping out my web designs. What about some tutorials and sample flowcharts? Any and all help would be supremely appreciated.

Microsoft Visio is decent.

this may sound too simple to be true, but the Powerpoint of Office XP, can make clean professional looking flowcharts with all the arrows, shapes pre packed. Give it a shot.

if you’re just looking for the arrows and shapes and you have illustrator, i believe it has a chart option as well as some basic shapes. you could give that a try but i doubt it is as easy as microsoft
