   I know that there is a way to manually choose a theme by entering the correct url in the address box but I can't find the posts that reference that.

   Take a look at some options:
   Theme_Switching

   There's the preview theme plugin.
   And the theme switcher plugin.
   The latter works like this.
   http://yourwebsite/index.php?wptheme=Theme+Name
   Notice the + sign between two word themes.

   sadly the themeswitcher plugin doesn't work for me.

   I tried this http://dearauthor.com/wordpress/index.php?wptheme=classic
   

   Unfortunately, the regular theme still shows.

   You have to use the theme name not the folder name. Therefore it would be WordPress+Classic for the classic theme.

    This seems not to work under 2.5

    For some reason, the "http://yourwebsite/index.php?wptheme=Theme+Name" didn't work with 2.5. I ended up installing this preview plugin:
