One idea for you that may encourage members to donate a little and regular, is to separate the server costs and the goodies:
Show the server costs on main page and how much has been donated so far towards it.
Then once hit, have a poll on what members that have donated want to get, so you are always targeting the needs.
I have seen a similar system used on a free forum I used to be a member of, and they pretty much always met their costs every month as a minimum.
The donors had a badge for the month saying friends of, even if they only donated 2 dollars.
And maybe keep hydrastorm updated to latest version of FS even if no new features for non donators.
Just ideas anyway, best of luck going forward
