How many products should I show normally?

5 or 10 are good if you do not want to keep your visitor waiting for 1000’s of them to load.

How to change the look of displayed products?

You can directly edit the plugin file if you know PHP programming. You can also add CSS tags like para and all to get the desired display results.
