Cookie(s).  The easiest way out is to store everything (login, page layout
details, colors etc) in the cookie.  The problem with this approach is that
if the user clears his cookies (or, they are somehow lost), he has to redo
the customization.  Same problem if you (as a developer) want to change the
format of the cookie.

A more elegant solution would be to store only the login (or, some id) in
the cookie and the rest of the customization stuff in a DB.
