   Greetings Everyone
   I am a member of Marin Professionals Association, which is a non profit community of unemployed professionals sponsored by EDD .Since April I have been searching and testing different formats of WordPress templates but recently in their website showcase, I found an incredible website: ""www.umwblogs.org" that our community would really benefit from .So now I am trying to recreate our "marinprofessionals.com" website with the same capabilities that http://www.umwblogs.org" has.

   1) I have registered the domain (marinprofessionals.com) and am hosting it with Godaddy,
   2) I uploaded the MUWP 2.4.8a version zip file to my godaddy account and unziped it.
   3) From godaddy I uploaded the BuddyPress zip 1.1.2 version and unziped it as well
   Please bear with me...as I have some questions that may seem silly to you...
   1. my plan was to create each page starting with the home page from a WPMU template and then add the sliding panels and user login capability similar to ""www.umwblogs.org"
   but the problem is I don''t see any templates available in WPMU.
   Can you please help me to get started in the right direction?

   2) Today while searching for direction in the MUforums, I found in the "Themes and Templates" category a comment regarding "Following Andy's (Peatling) instructions to use Buddypress 1.1.1 with WPMU 2.8.4a and having it working well with the Woo "Journal theme".
   I would like to know how did you find Andy's (Peatling) instructions?

   3) Is there a way I can customize the UMW blogsite : http://umwblogs.org/ to make it suitable to our http://www.marinprofessionals.com needs?
   Thanks in advance for any help

   "but the problem is I don''t see any templates available in WPMU."

   Go to Site Admin -> Themes. Make sure the buttons are set to "yes". Then they will show up in the Appearance menu.
