Yea, I think it would be sweet if you could add in the File menu drop down a 'scoure net and send webpage as wireframe' addition (kinda like the send webpage as email in safari). You would be able, in one click (maybe two), to enter your theme 'automotive' (custom preferences available for custom settings) and have your program find what is trend setting on the NET right then and there and simply change all color to black & white and outline all images with a 1 pixel boarder, replace all text with loren ipsum...package and upload it to be reviewed with your name on it (like an email signature pref eg..Principal Architect powered by ANGIE). Maybe even throw in a filter to make the lines wiggly so it looks like a sketch. Get super wild and do an initial handwriting analyses and make the filter make it looks like you hand drew those babies. What do you think?
