I would really like to see a “create topic” button always there - even when logged in, on every page. It is just one more "barrier to entry " for people to post - to have to click to go to the main screen before you can create a new message. I frequently read a thread and that sparks an idea for a new thread - but I have to click home to then go to the button to create a new thread. Bad UX/UI in my opinion.
