PmWiki makes it easy to develop and change "Skins" which alter the look and feel of the pages. You can preview available skins in the Skins Gallery in a reduced size or see how a test page looks with some assorted markup. (The old test page is still available, and here's another one.)
If you've developed a skin for PmWiki that you'd like to share, feel free to add it to the Cookbook here, and also on the Skins Gallery! After it's uploaded, Pm will generally configure pmwiki.org to display pages in the new skin. Be sure to look at skin guidelines for suggestions about creating skins that others can use.

Other PmWiki skins (some unmaintained):
Skins hosted elsewhere:
To find skins for PmWiki v.1a, see Cookbook-V1.Skins. If you'd like to use one of them with PmWiki 2, most of them will probably work fine with a little modification and help from Changes from PmWiki 1.
The following part is included from PmWiki.LayoutBasics:
Modifying the "pmwiki" skin
The pmwiki skin (i.e., pub/skins/pmwiki/) is part of the PmWiki installation, so any changes you make to these files are likely to be overwritten when you upgrade. Thus, instead of editing the files directly, you should start by making a copy of the files in pub/skins/pmwiki/ into a new skins directory (say, pub/skins/xyzskin/).
Once you've made a copy of the skin directory, you can then edit the .tmpl and other files in that directory. You then tell PmWiki to use the skin in pub/skins/xyzskin by setting
$Skin = 'xyzskin';
in your local/config.php file.
