Are you an exclusive drafter on graph paper? Do you ever employ larger spaces like a white board? And what about computer mock up tools? Is this something you just have an affinity for or something that you provides you distinct advantages over other options? I’m curious what other sort of drafting tools you use.

Also, one for the sketching wishlist: a <a href="http://www.designcommission.com/shop/dc-website-stencil-kit/" rel="nofollow">UI stencil</a> from Design Commission. Not certain how much I would actually use it, but there is something undeniably satisfying about pushing a no.2 pencil against the edges of a stencil. #pixelvacation I’m a little late to the party, but want to confess I spied Jackson sketching in the Behance Dot Grid at IDEA 2008 and immediately purchased two.

I actually didn't think about sketchbooks, but my current favorite is the <a href="http://www.creativesoutfitter.com/Products/Dot-Grid-Book/9" rel="nofollow">Behance Dot Grid</a> notebook. I've also got an <a href="http://www.ecojot.com/styles.aspx?it=32" rel="nofollow">EcoJot sketchbook</a> I got free at a conference. While the EcoJot is nice, they're hard to find, and the Strathmore is just as good. Thanks for posting!
