    Since Buddypress isn't even quite BETA yet (or barely).... there hasn't been any made.

    Any you've seen people have made for themselves and haven't released.

    I tried with buddypress, but I dont like it. Many bugs.

    I have a great designer, but he has no experience in WP og WPMU. Would it be too diffucult for him to design a theme for WPMU?

    Not really. Creating the themes themselves is easy. The theme used on the home blog usually has alot going on. That's probably the hard part. Give him a list of features you want and point him to the search button on the forums. Just about everything you could dream up has been covered bfore.

    Hmm... now I'm a little confused. I assume he only has to make a design for WPMU home theme, since there are plenty og normal WP themes, right?

    The design is not a problem for him and neither is programming the features. Here I mean pulling different features to home-design. For example: latest blogs, latest members etc.

    BUT... when he has no experience at all with WP/WPMU, is it easy to find which codes/lines (these latest blogs, latest member etc) should be taken/pulled from?

    I have no idea if my explanation makes any sense for you guys :)

    Those things are all accomplished with plugins. :) We've discussed it many times here in the forums, and if he has any experience with plunking plugin code in a theme, he should have little problems.

    If he has no experience in even creating WP themes, just get him to design the PSD, then hire someone else to code it. there's plenty of psd-to-wp/wpmu-theme coders out there.
