Why is my Emacs Theme change Incomplete

I'm trying to change my Emacs theme. I'm using iTerm2, and I wonder if that is the culprit of this problem. The theme I wanted to try out is Zenburn, however, after configuring ~/.emacs file, my Emacs still looks very different to the screenshot took here: http://emacsthemes.caisah.info/zenburn-theme/ enter image description here

Mine looks like this:

The background color did not change, and the line separates line number and actual code is too obvious. Any reason why this would happen and how to fully apply Zenburn theme?

What appears to me is your background looks like that of Solarized dark theme. It may have happened that you have initialized that theme earlier. It might be the case that you have compiled that .emacs file to byte code but your newer change is not. Open .emacs in Emacs editor and try M-x eval-buffer. Your configuration looks fine to me. If that works then either you will need to remove .emacs.elc or do a byte compilation for your .emacs.
