while defining the table for TYPO3 you have to select show_thumbs=1

Kickstarter has an option which will output in 'tca.php' something like:

$TCA["tx_dummy_test"] = array (
     "ctrl" => $TCA["tx_dummy_test"]["ctrl"],
	[...]
     "columns" => array (
	[...]
         "testpics" => Array (
             "exclude" => 1,
             "label" => 
"LLL:EXT:dummy/locallang_db.xml:tx_dummy_test.testpics",
             "config" => Array (
                 "type" => "group",
                 "internal_type" => "file",
                 "allowed" => 
$GLOBALS["TYPO3_CONF_VARS"]["GFX"]["imagefile_ext"],
                 "max_size" => 500,
                 "uploadfolder" => "uploads/tx_dummy",
                 "show_thumbs" => 1,    	// <<<<<<<<< here are the thumbs
                 "size" => 5,
                 "minitems" => 0,
                 "maxitems" => 10,
             )
         ),
     ),
	[...]
);
