Couple of ideas.
Put three thumbnails up for initial view at addon page, with more available via *more* link, or similar. That way you have a fixed intial menu size, but more shots available for those mods/comps that really need them.

Maybe instead of a lightbox (heard complaints, I don't mind it much) making the screenshots an onhover element that expands into a browser sized picture, and unzooms when unhovered. Could set a max size based on % of browser width to prevent funny business with large pictures.

edit: I'm also diggin' the idea of tags on addons. Could be a really good idea for organic organization. People tend to understand the idea of tags pretty easily.
