You know, Expression Blend allows you to prototype data-driven user interfaces without having access to live data. You can easily generate and customize sample data for your SketchFlow applications from Data panel. Expression Blend 3 uses “chairs” as sample images and they are really nice for product lists, but sometimes you need to give your data a new look. If your application displays a list of companies - it’s better to use sample logos or sketch logos.

I’d like to show you how these samples look in my SketchFlow applications.

I’ve also created alphabetic logos in Expression Design by using different effects:

You can use these sample logos in your SketchFlow applications:

It will be much more interesting than chairs, right?
