COLOSSAL NEWS!! Launching soon... the Viewpoints V.I.P. Program!

We are SO PUMPED and READY to introduce the NEW Viewpoints V.I.P. Program!

One of the most important things the Viewpoints community taught us this year is that members like you want to be recognized for the time and effort to contribute to the community. We listened and took action. We are excited to announce the upcoming launch of the new Viewpoints V.I.P program that helps our members and readers recognize those who have shared their perspectives with the community.

The Viewpoints V.I.P program allows you to earn points for your contributions that allow you to earn status within the community. Under this new recognition program we have introduce Five NEW status levels for you to earn! You will earn points for contributions such as writing reviews, voting, commenting on the message boards, uploading photos and more. As the points grow, so will your status. Your status will be represented by a badge that will appear under your profile picture and will follow you throughout the site. So, wherever your profile picture appears (i.e. next to your reviews, discussion posts comments etc.), so will your status badge!

We will also award special badges like… Simple Thanks, Bright Idea, Featured Reviewer, Founding Member, Holiday Helper, Publisher’s Circle, Shutterbug, Sweepstakes Winner and Community Liaison. We will regularly feature new exclusive awards that you could win. No worries… you won’t lose credit for participation prior to the launch of the V.I.P. Program. Your contributions in the past will be tallied and a new status badge will be created for you if you accumulate enough points. If you had ‘Writer’ status in the past, you will get a new badge (with your new status) based on the points you have accumulated.

We will be working hard to get the V.I.P Program up and running. Watch here, on the Message Boards & your email inbox for the official launch announcement. Stay tuned!
