I've been working with Drupal since v4.6, but was looking for a tighter theme than the one I was currently using (a heavily modified Skeleton theme). 

I installed Thenews theme on my site fine, arranged a few blocks in different sections, but the resulting layout flushes everything left, no columns or sections. 

The fonts/colors changed so the css must be loading, but the page structure just isn't there. (Even pagination numbers flush left/vertically). 

Something isn't right. Thoughts?
