Re: [Announce] Next BART (FREE)
I did lots of mocks and used the following app/sites: photoshop / illustrator / thenounproject.com / meego your self website. Additionally I tested with 3+ users to make sure they clicked on where I wanted to click. Also i tested the app for 2 months, on a daily bases to make sure all the features where how I wanted them to be. Here is the break down of the dev:

This is my first app and it took forever to make, but I learned a lot. If you want to design something similar, than I would first do paper mocks, and share them with your friends. If they like it than continue on with photoshop, show them that... and finally when you do a simulation show them that....
