More Invisibility

Sauron isn't invisible when he wears the ring, right? And yet, Gollum, Bilbo, Frodo, and Sam all became invisible when they wore the ring. Maybe Sauron isn't invisible only because he doesn't want to be invisible. He is the master of the ring, so he should be able to control everything that the ring does. If anyone else had been powerful enough to fully control the ring, perhaps they could becom visible and invisble at will, but the ring had a tendency to become the true master, and it would force its powers upon the wearer.
