Membership With OpEdNews
Visionary Membership is for people who want to show a premier level of support for OpEdNews and receive all the benefits of lower cost plans plus the ability to customize your member page. Benefits and Features
With this benefit, you have the ability to choose from a number of layouts for your members page. Since your members page lists all content submitted including article, comments, diaries, polls, etc, these layouts allow your members page to become a special customized page for you.
If you have submitted articles to OpEdNews, you can have them all assembled into a document for you to download. The document will be complete with a table of contents.
With this benefit, you have the ability to use larger images for your article submissions. The regular user is limited to images that are less than 100K, but you get double the image size with this benefit.
Articles longer than one page have a set of links you need to click to go to the next page. With this benefit, all articles will appear as one long page.
When regular users enters a comment, they have a quite limited number of colors they can use for text and background. With this benefit, you have a greatly expanded range of colors to choose from.

In addition to being able to see YOUR stats on your archive page, you will be able to see page views of other writers, on their archive pages.
