I have installed the skinnytip tools tip plugin and have been trying to edit my content.php to get this to work but it's giving me problems.

I see websites that have thumbnails pop up when you mouse over the gallery title link. Just wondering if there was an easy way to do tis?

Thank!
I don't know of any, but ask Fris, he's the resident WP plugin god. If it doesn't exist as a plugin, it's extremely easy to do it with just a small change in your WP template and 2 lines of JQuery. Simply add a hidden div (using display: none) with the_post_thumbnail() inside it and change display on hover using Jquery.

Edit: thinking on it, you can do it with just pure CSS
