I cant find where to start a new post button. Am I going blind?

Did you enter one of the following sub-forums?

Maps, buildings, dem, POI
Program (+data.zip+branding.zip+license)
Languages, voices, speedcams
Skins
Tutorials
General Discussions about iGO core

EDIT: ah wait, you can only add a topic in 'General Discussions'...

In the iGO section, posting is only allowed here :



Also, see forum rule #7

Cheers. Has it always been in that section only?

Not always but since a very long time. Years already.
Some users kept making - not related to the subforum - posts all over the subforums.
