After looking into child theme and options to make a complete theme for BBPress 2.5 I want to share this. (Unfortunatly the web is flooded with usless 1.0 tips)

If you are not that into setting up a complete BBPpress child theme and hacking CSS, this is one simple way of doing a easy change and customisation of BBPress if u want some personalized look and you already have a child-theme style.css but your main-theme style is messing with BBPress looks.

Add this snippet into your normal child-theme style.css and change the colors and font size as you like.

/* BBPress font fix */

#bbpress-forums li.bbp-header,
#bbpress-forums li.bbp-footer {
background: #D6E0FF;
}

#bbpress-forums div.bbp-forum-title h3,
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-title h3,
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-title h3 ,
#bbpress-forums a.bbp-forum-title,
#bbpress-forums a.bbp-topic-permalink {
	font-size: 16px;
	color: #0066FF;
}

#bbpress-forums a.bbp-author-name {
	font-size: 12px;
	color: 	#75A3FF;
}

Thats all. All other style is already looking nice I think. I use this blue look in my Techism child-theme and it looks great. Running BBPress 2.5.3.
