I would appreciate if someone can explain me theme usage.As I understand buddypress requires special theme. I found some article and plugin for custimizing WP theme for BP but plugin is not working with WP 3.1. Do you use separate themes for WP and BP or you adjust main theme?
Tnx

That’s one way, using your WordPress theme and installing the BP Template Pack plugin to transfer BP template files (for BP component pages) plus ajax and js goodness to make your WP theme BP-compatible.

Another way is to create a child theme of the bp-default theme

then adjust via CSS only to change layout and colors or do more than that.
