It seems goofy to be discussing WP on a bbPress forum, but this is important for theme integration between the 2. Here is my login form in my sidebar (well ex sidebar as I use wordpress.com now). I use a conditional to welcome the user or display the login form.

 <li id="login">

<?php

global $user_ID, $user_identity;

get_currentuserinfo();

if (!$user_ID):

?>

<label for="s"><?php _e('Login:'); ?></label>

<ul>

<li>

<form name="loginform" id="loginform" action="<?php echo get_settings('siteurl'); ?>/wp-login.php" method="post">

<div><label><?php _e('Login') ?>:<br /><input type="text" name="log" id="log" value="" size="15" tabindex="7" /></label><br />

<label><?php _e('Password') ?>:<br /> <input type="password" name="pwd" id="pwd" value="" size="15" tabindex="8" /></label><br />

<input type="hidden" name="rememberme" value="forever" />

<input type="submit" name="submit" value="<?php _e('Login'); ?> &raquo;" tabindex="9" /><br />

<?php wp_register('', ''); ?>

<input type="hidden" name="redirect_to" value="<?php echo $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; ?>"/></div>

</form></li>

<li><script type="text/javascript">slvBanner();</script></li></ul>

<?php

else:

?>

<label for="s">Welcome <?php echo $user_identity; ?>!</label>

<ul>

<?php wp_register(); ?>

<li><a href="<?php echo get_settings('siteurl') . '/wp-login.php?action=logout&amp;redirect_to=' . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; ?>"><?php _e('Logout'); ?></a></li>

</ul>

<?php

endif;

?>

</li>
