Feed icons, calendar arrows and graph bar (used on the archive page) all have different color variations to compliment each colorset that is included in bp.

Administration interface
Default fixed width interface
There are actually two admin template stylesheets. The default is a 970 pixel, fixed width design. Why fixed width? Simple - the designer has much more control when the template is heavily dependent upon graphics, which is certainly the case with BP. For those with the ability to do so, it also allows a user to replace the background banner image with a fixed width banner image they use on the frontend.
