Hi

the placeholder {thumbnail} typically appears in the Files layouts as

Code Select Expand

<div class="jd_image_right" style="">{screenshot_begin}<a href="{screenshot}" rel="lightbox"><img src="{thumbnail}" style="" />[/url]{screenshot_end}</div>
And in Download Details

Code Select Expand

         <div class="jd_screenshot_zone jd_clear" style="">
            <span class="jd_screenshot">{screenshot_begin}<a href="{screenshot}" rel="lightbox" target="_blank"><img class="jd_image-left" src="{thumbnail}" />[/url]{screenshot_end} </span>
            <span class="jd_screenshot">{screenshot_begin2}<a href="{screenshot2}" rel="lightbox" target="_blank"><img class="jd_image-left" src="{thumbnail2}" />[/url]{screenshot_end2} </span>
            <span class="jd_screenshot">{screenshot_begin3}<a href="{screenshot3}" rel="lightbox" target="_blank"><img class="jd_image-left" src="{thumbnail3}" />[/url]{screenshot_end3} </span>
        </div> <!-- end of screenshot zone -->

To get a thumbnail you need to have an image or images associated with the Download.  So you need to add an image to the Download in the Images tab when editting or creating a Download
If there are no images then jDownloads does not show anything.
Also you need to go to Images tab of the Configuration where you will find a section on Thumbnails.  Amongst other things your hosting service needs to provide the GD Library
