Yes, you'll need to edit downloads.php to make that happen.

Around line 393, look for:

PHP Code:

    eval('$dpanel = "' . fetch_template('downloads_panel_side') . '";');
    eval('$dmain = "' . fetch_template('downloads_wrapper_side') . '";'); 


REPLACE with:

PHP Code:

eval('$dmain .= "' . fetch_template('downloads_wrapper_top') . '";'); 


Around line 1980, look for:

PHP Code:

    if ($dl->statslatestfiles > 0 OR $dl->statstopcontributers > 0 OR $dl->statsmostpopularfiles > 0)
    {
        eval('$dpanel = "' . fetch_template('downloads_panel_side') . '";');
        eval('$dmain .= "' . fetch_template('downloads_wrapper_side') . '";');
    }
    else
    {
        eval('$dmain .= "' . fetch_template('downloads_wrapper_none') . '";');
    } 


REPLACE with:

PHP Code:

eval('$dmain .= "' . fetch_template('downloads_wrapper_none') . '";'); 


That should do the trick!
