I hope you can show me what I am missing. I have edited the theme source from the tutorial to change the header on Prince of Darkness by Antechinus. It is a curve variant. I have changed the class on a couple of items, and added it to css. I have also replaced the PM info in topbar to reflect unread posts and unread replies. I added the news to the middle bar div. I also changed the colors of course to match the dark theme. The theme works, sort of. 
There are no parse errors, but the middle div disappears upon logout.
I am sure it has to do with this- if ($context['user']['is_logged']) in the top_bar_guts div.
When logged in, everything works and is where I want it, and then upon logout, the entire middle, middle_innner, and middle_guts div simply does not display, but everything else does.
I am an extreme PHP novice, so I am guessing it is something simple.
here is just the portion that I have altered from index.template.php
