Luckily have some good utility tool at coplex , is so call retheme.exe.

Below is the coding from the Codeplex reTheme :)


using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using Microsoft.SharePoint;

namespace reTheme
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            string siteUrl;
            if (args.Length == 0)
            {
                Console.Write("Site Collection URL:");
                siteUrl = Console.ReadLine();
            }
            else
            {
                siteUrl = args[0];
            }

            try
            {
                using (SPSite site = new SPSite(siteUrl))
                {
                    foreach (SPWeb web in site.AllWebs)
                    {
                        Console.Write(web.ServerRelativeUrl + ": ");
                        try
                        {

                            string themeName = web.Theme;
                            web.ApplyTheme("");
                            web.ApplyTheme(themeName);
                            Console.WriteLine("OK");
                        }
                        catch (Exception e)

            }
        }
    }
}
