The Silhouette Website Redesign

The Silhouette page has undergone a redesign! Harking back to our website’s existence before we switched to WordPress, the dark theme emphasizes the simple yet bold design of our Fall 2011 issue. The site is now connected to the Silhouette Twitter feed via the sidebar, and soon you will be able to share posts to anyone easily with share buttons on each site posting. We at Silhouette hope you enjoy the new design!
