This thread from the Show & Tell section has some camera shots showing close-ups of how I use my thumb pick. For example, time 0:12-0:25 shows the picking hand quite well. This might be helpful in at least understanding hand position needed for use of a thumb pick.
As Mycroft mentioned, grinding down the picking blade length on a thumb pick can be helpful, though I haven't had to do this with the Fred Kelly Slick Picks.

Thanks Glenn, very helpful. Your playing, and arrangements, are superb, and I've watched many of them. The thumbpick is feeling better all the time - I did trim it down quite drastically, so I don't have to keep my thumb so high and its been an easier transition from no pick.
