Honestly, that sounds more confusing than the current setup. Right now, the "add new" buttons only show up for logged in users and I think showing that, on the home page, to the thousands of not logged in users will confuse people more than it will help. We currently have plans to add links to the submission guidelines to the submission forms and the create account links and search bar are both at the top of every page already so this sounds like a convoluted setup that will cause more issues than it solves.
For reference, we actually get very few questions regarding how to submit. If you're logged in, the buttons for adding games and sheets/models/textures/sounds are pretty prominent and most new users seem to get the hang of it pretty quickly so unless I'm misunderstanding something here, this seems like an over-complicated solution to a problem we don't currently have.
For what it's worth, I appreciate the thought and the suggestion regardless but I don't think this particular suggestion is one I'll be implementing.
