Ah, no example or download from me this week! I don't use storyboards--I've never figured out how to use them in a way that is helpful for me. Describing interactions and/or animations I want to take place takes longer than just doing them. Copying and pasting from a Word doc into Storyline drives me nuts. Even importing a PowerPoint into Storyline can turn out to be problematic.
I start with a blank Storyline template, and go on developing my prototype (or first draft ) from there. Unless a client requires me to use a specific storyboard document. In that case, I generally end up reverse-engineering the project in order to comply. :)

I am right here with you. I get frustrated when people ask me for storyboards in Word, PPT, etc., because like you, I can build the slides faster in Storyline and then just use a review tool to show it to them. I'm only making changes in one system.
I use outlines more than storyboards and that works best for me. I'm so happy to read your post - I really thought I was the only one!
