I currently create click-through mockups using Balsamiq for my usability testing. After the concepts and flow have been decided, I would like to do a high-fidelity prototype to show stakeholders the real look and feel of the application before it goes into development. The problem is that I am not a developer or a web designer so I don't know how to code.

Are the any high fidelity prototyping tools that I would be able to use without having to know how to write code? Or alternatively something that is relatively easy to learn?

Sorry, but questions requesting recommendations for books / software / apps / papers etc. would fall into the shopping request category and aren't really suitable to a Q&A website. The reason for this is that there is no one correct answer, and such recommended items would soon be updated and replaced with newer / better versions making the best answers redundant. Therefore you're better off visiting our Chat site for such discussions, they're not really suitable for this main site I'm afraid. – JonW♦ Nov 30 '12 at 16:22

Also take a look at justinmind Prototyper and FlairBuilder.

Could you give a brief summary of each of those as part of your answer? – dhmholley Nov 30 '12 at 16:31

If the purpose of these high-fidelity prototypes is to demonstrate the "look and feel" more so than functionality, I would suggest producing the visuals as images in Photoshop and using InVision to make those mockups clickable in a browser (much like you did with Balsamiq).

Axure and the like are great for prototyping functionality but aren't great for demonstrating high-fidelity visuals.
