Don't know what "thise" templates are, but the answer is probably yes... just add a float:left; to the images in your stylesheet.

Sorry, typing error.
Before update from version 1.4.x to 1.9.3 in module Album (Photo Albums) using one of templates: lightbox or lytebox (not sure which one?) thumbnails were displayed in multicolumn view. After update thumbnails are displayed in only one column.

How to alter one of those templates so that setting "Default max number of thumbnail columns for new albums (0 means unlimited. Only used on Tables template):" can be used. Not sure where to put float:left?

Some solutions for this problem are mentioned on this forum but they don't work for me.

If you have 50 or more photos in album, page becomes ridiculously long so that user has to scroll, and scroll, and scroll.

Is there any other template that has multicolumn thumbnauils and decent full photo view.

What version of CMSMS, etc. etc...

Most likely you have a new version of CMSMS and it isn't attaching the style sheet to the page/template any more so the thumbs are vertical instead of left to right...

Version is 1.9.3.
I selected
Layout-template and select
"Top simple navigation + left subnavigation + 1 column" (my default template) click to css icon and add LightBox Sample CSS. Changed album template from lytebox to lightbox.

Nothing changed.
There is no lytebox CSS to add.
Where exactly do I attach the style sheet to the page/template?

Content of my photo album page is:
{cms_module module='album' categories='3,5,7'}

What version of Album?...

Older versions have modules/Album/css/stylesheet.css

I have no idea where the "LightBox Sample CSS" comes from but most likely it is only used once the thumb is clicked...

A link to the site works best...
