    WHERE do we find the questions to answer for the contest?? I seem to be missing a "questions" button.

      If you go to "Answers" (under the new "explore" along the black bar at the top of the page)  you can find any question that you think would make a good Hub.  Then you "make a Hub" instead of just answering in the space provided on the "Answers" page..  That's it - as far as I know.  You can add the link to the thread where people are doing that if you want to.  That's where you can ask questions too.

      I certainly don't think it is a dumb question, lol.  Who would think to find Questions under Answers?  I just happened to stumble across it myself one day.... I had no clue!

        That one's always kind of bothered me too, because I don't go there looking for answers.  I go looking for questions (to answer).  I suppose they based it on others' going there looking for answers.  hmm   ("Questions/Answers" might have been good..  hmm )  (Especially since there can sometimes be some pretty slim pickin's when it comes to questions that actually have real answers.)

    It's like an Abbot and Costello routine. You need to find Answers before you can find questions.

    HEY HABEE! You should have posted this question as a question under Answers so people could search for your question under Answers and answer your Answers question for the contest! You could ask who's on first while you're at it!

    I just simply answered the question thinking that I would be transferred through to where you do it! It's not really clear especially if you are new to HP like myself

    It's never made a lot of sense to me either. I've always felt the menu item would be better named Q&A to make it really clear what to expect when you land on that screen. But it is outlined in the learning centre and with the new menu listing 'Answers' sit under the first menu under 'Explore'. As soon as you click on 'Answers' the 'Ask a Question' box shows in the top right hand corner so it doesn't take much to find it.
