    here is my dirty hack for it 

open index.php
at the top after 
 $xoopsTpl->assign('cats', $cats);  
 add
 $photoHandler = xoops_getmodulehandler('publicphoto', 'extgallery'); 
for($i=0; $i <= count($cats); $i++){ 
    $photos = $photoHandler->objectToArray($photoHandler->getAlbumPhotoPage($cats[$i]['cat_id'], 0, "photo_date", "DESC"),array('uid')); 
} 
$xoopsTpl->assign('photos', $photos);  
then open templates/extgallery_index.html
at the bottom look for line 52. it looks like this 
 <h2><a title="<{$child.cat_name}>" href="<{xoAppUrl modules/extgallery/}>public-<{$display_type}>.php?id=<{$child.cat_id}>"><{$child.cat_name}>a>h2><br /><h3><{$child.cat_desc}>h3>td>  
change it to this 
 <h2><a title="<{$child.cat_name}>" href="<{xoAppUrl modules/extgallery/}>public-<{$display_type}>.php?id=<{$child.cat_id}>"> 
                        <{$child.cat_name}>a> 
                    h2> 
                    <br /> 
                    <h3><{$child.cat_desc}>h3> 
                    <{foreach item=photo from=$photos}> 
                        <{if $photo.cat_id == $child.cat_id}> 
                            <img src="<{xoAppUrl}>uploads/extgallery/public-photo/thumb/thumb_<{$photo.photo_name}>" /> 
                        <{/if}> 
                    <{/foreach}> 
                    td>  
you should now see thumbs of each category
