Posting a new thread...time to make it easier....

I believe our traffic is way down because people cannot figure out how to post a new thread. Lets face it,m "Ask an Expert" does not translate to "post a thread". Yes there are tutorials but quite frankly, if I went to a new site, it I had to site thru video tutorial to ask I question, I would quickly be moving on. Weekly I get 3-4 PMs from people who cannot figure out how to post. This needs to be simplified..quickly.
