[Plugin: WP Smart Sort] way to change dropdown to inline list

I’m trying to create an author archive, and was looking for a way to list the author’s posts and have a menu to sort by name, title and popularity.

This has been the best plugin I’ve been able to find.

I was just wondering if there’s a way to change the dropdown list for something that looks like this.

name | date | popularity

currently the dropdown contains this:
name asc
name desc
date asc
date desc
most commented asc
most commented desc
