I prefer not to use software like photoshop or gimp, mainly because
I'm no graphic designer.

What I want to do is to design layout, forms and presentation. To find
the most 'user friendly' interface and to have a clear picture of my
application before writing any code. Then the graphic artist will make
it aesthetically nice.

I found fireworks from adobe, but it looks like more gear towards
designer. It's 300$ no demo.
Pencil for firefox is buggy on mac and it has a very limited set of
widgets. (but it shows much potential)
Omnigraffle looks nice (tried the demo), but it's 200$ and Mac only.

In the end, if Omnigraffle worth the price, I'll go for it.

Thank you for your suggestion,

Francis
