New GT Island in Second Life

We celebrate the new, paper-free, digital-downloadable edition of Gay Times magazine by launching it at the new GT Island in Second Life. GT is the first gay magazine to have a presence in Second Life. Feel free to hang-out, chill-out and explore. Anytime. All the time.

GT Beach House
-----------------------------------------------------
Read the new issue by the pool, check out back issues, raid the GT office or relax in the dunes. Oh, and don't forget to collect your free GT goodie bag from the first floor. These will be re-filled monthly with new gifts including – coming soon – a limited-edition range of GT clothing.


GT Art Gallery
-----------------------------------------------------
Here we will be showing exhibitions of GT photography plus new and unseen photographs from all over the world. The opening ground floor exhibition is a selection of classic GT cover shots by Fabrice Lachant, Branco & Joor and Joe Oppedisano. The first floor is showing photographs of Marco Da Silva by Fabrice Lachant. Join the GT Island group to be notified about new exhibits as they will change regularly.


GT Spa Studio
-----------------------------------------------------
Chat, work-out or practice yoga in our Spa Studio. Here we will be showing cutting-edge contemporary art by both real life and SL artists. Want to be exhibited? Let us know. The first exhibition has works that have been featured in GT by Bruce LaBruce, Stuart Sandford, Cameron Dailey and Thierry Brouchart.


GT Helicopter & Speedboat
-----------------------------------------------------
Grab MDK Flood if you are on the island at the same time and maybe he'll take you and your friends for a spin. In the meantime relax on the coastal floatables. Alone, or with a friend...


GT in Second Life
-----------------------------------------------------
Want to know where the best DJ's from Ibiza appear in SL? Want to rent a house in the friendliest gay area? Or where to find the best clothes, sunglasses or where the coolest gay beach is? Instant message us and we'll let you know. In real-life or digital-life, GT can let you know what is what and where is where.


GT Island VIP Group
-----------------------------------------------------
A GT Island VIP group has also been set up. Touch the sign on the top of the island to join. You will be the first to find out about new events, giveaways and where and when our official launch party will be. The launch party will be photographed and appear in the following RL edition of GT.


Competition
-----------------------------------------------------
Want to be a GT cover model? Take a photograph of yourself on the Island and send it to us. We will choose the best for an exclusive GT SL cover that will be displayed in the GT Beach House. Oh, and it will be printed in the following edition of real-life GT. Get buying those pose-balls and prim that hair.

-----------------------------------------------------

The digital edition of GT is available now online via www.gaytimes.co.uk
