If I change the theme to any other then the default, then the website becomes white/unformatted untill i choose another theme or set the garland color back to normal

All via the screen
I have this with any theme
By ftp set everything to perm:777

For the rest the site is working ok.

What can be done ?

Renaming the .htaccess to something as old.htaccess does not work since a new one is automatically created, but what you can do is the vollowing :

After I created an empty .htaccess in /drupal/sites/default/files/ is is working.

The only question is : is it a good idea to have an empty .htaccess there.
Is there something else I could put in to it and that it remains working.

I get this with Drupal 6.15. I've changed back to drupal 6.14 to avoid it. Don't know why it happens?

Using Firefox 3.5 and/or IE8
PHP hosted so I assume it's latest version on a Unix environment
Modifying Minelli and/ or Garland from the default to the Shiny Tomato theme - it also happens when I change individual colours

I think if you make the changes in Drupal 6.14 and then upgrade then it upgrades smoothly
