i want to allow users to switch themes..just like on the www.msn.com website...how do i do it..any idea.. 
Switching site themes
Its not going to be a matter of simple html. You will need some Javascripts for this one.
i dont quit get it!! whats your site? which language do you use for your site? you will have to re-code evry part of your website with user management for that.
there's a possibility to have different skins/themes on every page load but that would take a lot of time to load your page.? be more specific.

I found an article (Google is your friend, keyword search: switching style sheets) on A List Apart here: http://www.alistapart.com/stories/alternate/ that should start you off if not solve all your problems. It even tells how to give your guests a cookie so that once they find the style they prefer they get the same style when they come back (how cool is that).
Hope it helps.

as far as i came from the article posted by Tex_Arcana .. it requires only switching of style sheets (.css files) and lil work of javascript to do that...
