BuddyPress.org

my mistake was that i uploaded all files in plugin directory .. i forgot to put the theme in the themes directory.. once you do that, the current theme of buddypress shows up..

regardless, even after that there are bugs like https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=141 and https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=97 which need to be sorted out
