EZA's Platinum -- Does It Cover Pen Names, or Must They Acquire Platinum Separately

...It's all in the headline.

It would be nice if one covers all; anyone know for sure.

Once you've reached Platinum, all your pen names have the same status.

...Hey, thanks Steven.

That was fast -- and the answer I wanted!

I've seen your picture a lot around here. How do I register a thank you?

And... here's an interesting question for you:

How does a Pen Name show a photo (a Pen Photo! :-) )? Seriously, maybe a stock photo? Grey hat; black? I feel a little funny about that.

I think you need 25 posts or something before the Thanks button is available.

I'll go ahead and slap him with a thanks for you.

...OK Dan. I would thank you too... but I can't yet!

I like it around here, but I better get back to work. See you around.

Pen name photos are tricky. I don't use them. I don't personally like to
get into that area. It's bad enough I'm using a fake name (usually to keep
marketers from finding out what I'm doing) but I don't want to start
slapping a fake face onto it to boot.

It's beyond what I'm willing to do but each person has to do what's
comfortable for them.

Also, check the legalities of doing such a thing as I am NO lawyer.

In other words, tread carefully.

PS - I thanked Dan for you

I use pen names on a platinum account and don't use a photo on my account.

You can create a profile for each pen name you use so perhaps you can add multiple photos - I've never tried to do that but I do create a profile for each pen name.

...Thanks Kay. I'll think about it.

It could probably be done and nothing would come of it... a little strange to me though. :-)

Oh! Just thought of another fascinating question (making fun of myself):

My first ten articles, which I planned to submit in bulk later today, are under my pen name. Is that OK, or do I have to originally submit and earn Platinum under the account originator's name?

If the answer is it must be the original account holder's name, at first, to obtain Platinum, I'll write ten articles in what will be (that) author's area.

Thanks in advance for any possible advice.
