No, it creates one long row that will wrap based on the width of the browser
window or perhaps a container DIV, using display:inline.

.thumbnail {
* display:inline; *
margin:10px;
}

Or perhaps you need to set the columns and rows per page view? If so, I
would still use CSS for layout and limit the thumbnail count in XSL. You
just need to know the number of thumbnails (and which ones) to show and set
a class on a DIV that wraps all thumbnails to certain width to get the
correct number of cols and rows. 

Best,
