Interesting question. I like the in-depth technical nature of the discussions on the forum. I do find some of them have got very “high end” and out of the reach of many people though (e.g. discussions on expensive avionics etc). I don’t have anything to add to IFR discussions as I’m not qualified to contribute, although I do aspire to an IR.
I wouldn’t want to change the forum, although I find I’ve been spending more time on Flyer as those discussions seem more relevant to me. A VFR/bimbling forum might be worth considering.
I really should have worded it differently: how can we increase the VFR content?
I think it would be wrong to have special VFR sections – because every section we have (except Bizjets) is already fully applicable to both VFR and IFR. The Maintenance & Avionics section is more applicable to owners, of course, but there are many VFR-only owners.
The forum is more European in its content, which is good and does what it says on the tin. The touring reports have always been very good.
I had not noticed an IFR bias, and will try and continue to contribute from the VFR, no electrics, no gyros, tail wheel perspective.
The IFR content has quite a lot of useful weather discussion – and real IFR trip reports are always welcome.
Well, for starters you can change the 5 images of the banner. 
Since the forum is called EuroGA, it should have
- a typical low-performance canvas-metal-plastic-and-anything-in-between very slow mover
- a typical high-wing mid-performance 4-seat yoke-equipped grandfather-looking 40K-brotherhood-member with a name that contains 2 prime numbers less than 10 airplane
- a typical high performance low wing astonishing-looking mostly plastic parachute-equipped airplane
- a twin
- and a TB20 in-between
Just kidding. I find the forum has very high level and inspires me to look into things that I wouldn’t be able to find elsewhere. I, too, find it strange that there is not so much “traditional” VFR content. I guess newer or less experienced pilots may be overawed (I hope this is the correct word) by the level of the forum.
Renaming to EuroGAowner.org (or EuroGAseriousrenters.org 
) wouldn’t be completely off…

Change the weather?
Change the weather?
Hmmm you may have a point there!

I updated the banner a few days ago and, yes, you are right to an extent – the % of not legally IFR capable types has gone from 33.3% to 20%
What’s more boring than flying IFR?
Reading about other people flying IFR…
That is good.
I think it would be wrong to have special VFR sections – because every section we have (except Bizjets) is already fully applicable to both VFR and IFR.
But asking the question is a tacit admission that the sections aren’t really getting used for much VFR material. Hence a suggestion – I thought that is what you were looking for.
Good to see the banner now has a tailwheel type.
What we are missing on the forum is a contributor who flies airways in either a Beech 18, Staggerwing, or Cessna 195.
