We got 1443 participating to the survey, 2/3 = 962 (majority) of them thinking 50€ (or more) per year is alright. 97% said they desire Ipernity to continue (meaning they supposedly are okay that IMA continues it). 97% out of 1443 is 1400, meaning supposedly and hopefully all of them agrees on the opinion of the 2/3 majority as pays the 50€ annual fee. It then makes 70,000€. Then I have understood the costs per month at the moment are 5,000€, making 60,000€ per year. Although, I'm not sure if some of the costs were actually in dollars...
Nevertheless, with that 1400 users and current server costs, there is no much to clearance. I've seen the other suggestions of having different rates based on whether one is using just blog or full features. But to hire someone to implement that will cost as well.
I don't know whether people really, really have understood the troubles we are in. This opportunity is however all we have at the moment, to keep the service running, and take to control into our own hands.
EDIT: William has said the annual costs can be even 66,000€: www.ipernity.com/group/2260604/discuss/186298/comment/50234040#comment50234040
I have understood they can not reveal the exact details as long as Ipernity S.A. is still the official owner, but I believe that is what it takes to run the web site with current amount of users and settings.
Keep in mind there is hardly no crowdfundings supported by PayPal anymore:
