Patrick,

Without necessarily t answering all your questions, 

   - you can use all HTML table and other markup if you know that which 
   allows you to use style or class against most elements
   - Has the style applying to your smudgy test have a boarder?
   - I think someone else has addressed google fonts, and font awesome so 
   search for tiddlywiki + fonts
   - Change the Settings (controlPanel > Appearance > Theme Tweeks Options 
   > Side Bar Layout (I use Fluid Story , Fixed Side bar)
   - $:/core/ui/SideBarLists system tiddler has a lot to to with display of 
   the sidebar
   - You can add tabs in the Side bar by tagging a tiddler $:/tags/SideBar
   - Or perhaps you want a tiddler tagged with one of the following to 
   place things around the page (try this for an image banner

    $:/tags/TopLeftBar
    $:/tags/TopRightBar
    $:/tags/AboveStory
    $:/tags/BelowStory
    $:/SiteSubtitle


   - In tw tables you can use @@.classname Your Cell content@@
   - Or aforementioned full html tables


Have a go and ask again :)

Regards
Tony
