First off, is the tempimages directory in the right place?  Most people use
a unix-link to put images in the same basic place as the other directories
in an interchange catalog.  Or they actually move it to the root of the
catalog.  Also I bet the dreamweaver method of making rollovers is not
fullproof.  I like using my own method but try a different rollover method,
also check the source of the page when it doesn't work.  (for different
methods of rollovers look up 'javascript rollover' on google ;)  )

I know that we were having that same error
template_edit search error: your search file a valid database reference, was
'backup'.

but that it didn't actually affect the catalog, it was only a minor error
that was returned only in the administration interface.  As far as
thumbnails are concerned, I don't think that thumbnails will show up in the
foundation catalog in too many (if any) places.  You have to modify the
results page and any other pages that you need thumbnails on.  I use <img
src="[item-field thumb]"> when I need a thumbnail.. works just fine for me,
provided you use it within a [item-list] tag, or within a search (of
course).
