Same exact problem
I have the same exact problem trying to install Drupal to an add-on domain on BH- works fine as www.maindomain/addondomain but www.addondomain.com there is no color and other formatting off. I've switched templates, modified htaccess, and other things but cannot get colors etc. to display. Have you made any progress?

Maybe an answer
Here is a link to a post on BH forums. This guy seems to have figured it out, but I don't know how to do what he did in the shell via ftp, nor do I know how to find the settings.php file he mentions.

Post back if this helps and someone can explain it better. I am having the same problem.
If no one here has the answer I guess I am going to do what he suggests in the post and call Bluehost and ask them to do it for me.
Maybe/Maybe not
I found that as well, got shell access after BH told me to do so when I requested they do it as I am not being LINUX knowledgeable, Anyway, I couldn't get it to work by using his commends and in fact had to get BH to RESTORE my site afterwards. He references a /sites directory and I think that is incorrect or he doesn't explain what that ties to although that's a guess. Hopefully you had more luck than I....

I agree it is not explained
I agree it is not explained very well, but it does seem that he got it to work. I tried to email him, but his email is locked in the forums. A moderator would probably email him for us.
Maybe someone will come along and look at his post and be able to explain what he did!
Maybe?
I found this and it seems like it should work. I won't have a chance to test until tomorrow.

Post back with your results.
Thanks
I figured it out!
In the folder you installed Drupal in go to "Sites/Default" and open up settings.php. Find the lines below and edit as necessary.
If you are experiencing issues with different site domains,
* uncomment the Base URL statement below (remove the leading hash sign)
* and fill in the URL to your Drupal installation.
*
* You might also want to force users to use a given domain.
* See the .htaccess file for more information.
*
* Examples:
* $base_url = 'http://www.example.com';
* $base_url = 'http://www.example.com:8888';
* $base_url = 'http://www.example.com/drupal';
* $base_url = 'https://www.example.com:8888/drupal';
*
* It is not allowed to have a trailing slash; Drupal will add it
* for you.
*
$base_url = 'http://softsled.net'; // NO trailing slash!
The bold line is exactly what I changed in my settings.php file. Before it was / $base_url = 'http://mygaragebuilder.com/softsled';. As soon as I made the change and uploaded it everything worked perfect.
Make sure to backup your file before making any changes.
Hope that works for you.
