On pmwiki.org the skins for individual pages are set by the admin.
To set a skin from the wiki page itself you can add markup by ading to
config.php:

# Add a (:skin skinname:) markup
Markup('skin', 'fulltext',
  '/\\(:skin\\s+([-\\w]+)\\s*:\\)/e',
  "PZZ(SetSkin(\$pagename,'$1'))");

Then you can use in a page (for the page) or in a group's GroupHeader
(for the group) markup like (:skin EasySkin:) to set the skin to
EasySkin.
