    I have this working on my site. Just download "Theme Switcher" plugin and activate it.

    You are being very vague my freind.

    Place the theme changer code into your themes and Throw a URL of your site here

    Do you link correctly?

    E.g. yoursite.com/index.php?wptheme=Theme+Name

    This works for me even without the theme changer code in my themes.

    Don't you want the readers of your blog to be able to change the theme online, when reading the blog, like they can change font size? If so, then just add the theme changer code (you will find it in the plugin file) into the code of your themes.
