A donation of £3 a year isn't big enough to use the dreaded subscription term though, I'd probably just say "Minimum donation of £5 to cover the PayPal arseache, and you get a few extra bits and bobs for a whole year"
You'd be surprised how many people will donate if it gets them a gold star or something next to their name!
EDIT - I'd say the inbox/image limit relaxations sound like fair things to include. I have no idea about how the classifieds work here, but maybe some sort of bump/bold/color perk to help people spot yours from the crowd? It should be easy enough to spot who's doing big posting in that forum, maybe direct a PM to the regulars "offering" the brand new improved service? ;)
Yeah, perks for donating are always a good idea.
