   I don't exactly know what I'm doing but I got this to work, it shows post thumbnails and titles from the current category in a row instead of a list. I'm using it in loop.single, in the twentyten theme: after
   

   </div><!-- #post-## -->

   but before
   

   <?php endwhile; // end of the loop. ?>

   [code moderated - please use the pastebin]

   this is the css I peiced together:
   

   .header_thumbs {
       float: left;
       margin: 5px;
       overflow: hidden;
       width: 25%;
   }

   limiting the width forces a row.

   The problem is (other than extra mark up no doubt) ..it doesn't omit the current post.
   Anyway, just wondered if anyone knows a way to use css to do the same with the plugin's output, or perhaps make this code leave out the current post. I tried but I got lost quick, any help would be great.

   Here's a link to a page using the above code, I'm using it as a way to get category specific navigation in the form of a thumbnail gallery below each post, doesn't look so great as a list, hence my issue with the plugin.

   solved, I didn't have the exclude right:
   

   <?php
   $header_thumbs = get_posts('numberposts=4&exclude=' . $GLOBALS['current_id']= $post->ID . '&category='. $category->term_id );
   ?>

   full code and demo:
