I was reading a great thread on creating a horizontal login block.
1) I am curious if I wanted to use custom code how would i call the login block
2) how come the option of making it horizontal not a choose on the login block?

1. You could disable the default login block, then add your own login form using php in a new block and configure that block to appear in the right region, depending on your theme.
Or you could put the code straight into your theme's page.tpl.php, at the place you want it to appear, if you know enough CSS not to break the theme (which I don't).
2. Probably by design. Drupal core is a minimal installation with some essential functionality intended to be customized with modules and theming, and it wouldn't contain a feature which isn't actually used by some of its default themes.
