I believe I am in trial status and taking small steps on this.  I have not used captured images on other
sites such as dnoid old and now new.  Please provide some how to  add a proper image to new torrent uploads.

I'm also trying to get used to making torrents that are Magnets and have had to pull down at least one that
was made incorrectly.  I've been making original uploads for at least 9 years but I have concentrated more on content than technique of upload.  Many of the older ones are still going but I've had to restablish at an index
and begin a new archive.

I believe I recently went through some kind of tracker hell which is another story.  Because of that--
cutting and pasting lists of trackers I knew nothing about (in ignorance)  I editted all my archive to just
copersurfer.

Traffic is slow for my originated content but my client is seeding other torrents from other locations
which I continue to seed.  I'm on the forum at the client program and trying to get the advice I need.  I simply never paid any attention to the magnet technique they have.  But now in a torrent search engine, I'm seeking magnet
links for better download performance.

Ok thanks, I'll go over it.  

Progress for me yesterday.  I got an album cover image in and saved to Win7 Paint.
No idea if cropping is needed or how to adequately edit to get the pic ready for TGx.

Often they are cropped automatically by either the image host or the sometimes the site.

We have a up to date tracker list here

All you need to do is to add them to your client in which you create your .torrent file.
The magnet link is just a way for downloaders to start downloading a file.

Here is how to create a  .torrent file

https://torrentgalaxy.to/forums.php?action=viewtopic&topicid=57

If you go to a torrent here you can download it in 2 ways...

1
.torrent (green)

Or

2
Magnet (red)

With option 1 it will download the  .torrent file first which you will need to click in order to start the download.

With the magnet it will start downloading straight away

I  have posted a cd release of Phil Alvin's UnSung stories.  I have  the cover image showing but it looks to be in wrong aspect.  The torrent is mine that has been going for a long time.

Showing one competion on it so it should be verified shortly in the description.  I put all my bandwidth on it to completion.  I hope the seed gets some traffic.

If you can...start seeding again and i`ll give you a boost if i get the whole file...?:D:D

I just checked the torrent.  Down in the trackers list it shows coppersurfer.  I had put that in manually so I don't
know how that effects the transfer.  Coppersurfer is the only tracker I have to the torrent make process at this time.

Anything I do new has coppersurfer.   The CD  is an old torrent  It got one or two dl/s already but I don't
expect many.  I don't even know where it shows up here.

This afternoon I found some images for larger movie size torrents.  I do specialized  live performance plays
mostly from source disk  or recodes to much smaller sizes than available.  I enhance audio for voice and may
do some edits for interval (intermission breaks) on the source.  I provide descriptive text and commentary.

But I have no idea if there even is an interest in that on TGx.

TGx wants regular contributors.  My archive has material to do a play a week for a couple years.  It just means adding the image, text file and the older torrent.

I've been stuck on making magnet links properly.  I think the way to ask this is :  who uses Tixati (which is what I use?)  In ham radio they have the concept of an "Elmer."   Elmer is the one who shows you how the hobby (in the case of radio) works form experience.

What client are you using?
I use Ttorrent pro and I just made a  .torrent file which also gave me automatically the option to share the magnet link. (see below)
Before that I added the tracker list from here. Also just fine.

magnet:?xt=urn:btih:d7582f853a8d8e16fcc67e7bd4a30f7e27c21e91&dn=Bernhard%20Hennen%20-%20Het%20groene%20licht.epub&ln=1085857&tr=udp%3A%2F%2F9.rarbg.to%3A2710%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.leechers-paradise.org%3A6969%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.iamhansen.xyz%3A2000%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.ds.is%3A6969%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fseedbay.net%3A2710%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.coppersurfer.tk%3A6969%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fdenis.stalker.upeer.me%3A6969%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fnewtoncity.org%3A6969%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fopen.demonii.si%3A1337%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.uw0.xyz%3A6969%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fopen.stealth.si%3A80%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.filepit.to%3A6969%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fzephir.monocul.us%3A6969%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fexodus.desync.com%3A6969%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.tiny-vps.com%3A6969%2Fannounce


Uploaded it here with only the  .torrent file

https://torrentgalaxy.to/torrent/13811944/Bernhard-Hennen---Het-groene-licht-epub

Just check it out and test it out with both download options.
I'll leave it up until tomorrow

You really need more than one tracker (about 4 is ideal).
Too few and you risk having no working trackers, too many just causes your client (and connection) unnecessary overheads.

(the site allows 15, which is just an insane number, no one should have 15 trackers on a torrent, ever).

Hello.  I think I have the make process under control Tixati has a button to automatically add magnet.  I still have to confirm that each time until I'm used to it.  A big problem is the other index I use is dnoid (new version) and it is unresponsive.  I have at least one responder on there who wants the upload I make.  But then there were problems with adding magnet 'late in the day' after upload.  This screwed the the contnet and gave 99% reading after the magnet add.  That sounds screwy:  add some text, get a 99% rather than 100%..  So I took it down, remade it and still unresponsive with a good 100% and Force Check ok as well.

Thanks for answering.  I don't really want to abandon dnoid.

Then what causes "flooding"?  I had a complaint on an index and didn't know what they were talking about.  It was like
the account was hijacked and I had no place to look for errors.  I landing on trackers and saw some suspicious 'warez' titles I
had on a list I did not examine closely-- one of those with a whole string of IP addresses.  I'm skilled in all the nuance of
malefactors hijacking me.

Other possibility of a flooding hole might have been from rutracker.  It was the only new place I used to get some
content.  Or all the Google links traffic that has appeared recently.  Flooding-- who knows _what_  it is.

I'll look at your list above.
As to the one seed here not being on or deleted, it's not the case.  I am on all the time and my bandwidth is rarely not at the
limit upload.  Just now that Phil Alvin shows the same failure to connect as the other place.  It's at 100%.  It's showing one leeche down load or none being able to connect.  At the same time my file _shares_ from other places like bittorent and lime torrents or wherever show some activity.  With all seeding individual traffic is low unless I do it manually.  I did one manually for a
downloader from India.  Then he left and I restarted everything.  Etc. Etc.

What I will do is edit my trackers on the Phil Alvin CD to add your list from above.  At some point I could put them in the
make program for Tixati.  I don't know how trackers show up to you.  I'll mkae a note here when it's done.

Done.

I put your whole list on the one item, the Phil Alvin cd.

Let me know what you see.  It's late here.  I'll check back on Sunday.

I just looked for the Phil Alvin myself and yes it must be gone.  I did not delete and only even saw it once
to check the image.  Not there.  I searched on the Torrent Title Phil Alvin Un-Sung Stories with no result.

You can advise on this.  I'm not taking any action tonight.

My messages showed that one of TGx deleted the torrent-- prob'ly previous to me adding the TGx tracker
list.  Ok for that, the torrent is old and not popular.  I could remake it from scratch to test.  For now I think I'll
continue casting around for both what the problems might be and also which index will have good traffic.

 Example:  I look at the torrents list on the other index I use.  The numbers are huge and they don't even
fix or _know_ their indicater of performance is not showing green.  That or it is a bad green that shows up yellow.
 It's obvious admins in some cases aren't paying attention.

 I just ran a malwarebytes.  Only one small ad from Pot Player (which is not on all the time) was there
for malwarebytes to zap.  It's not me.  And since my traffic goes 24/7 on other indexes (and has even been
repackaged) I don't think it's blocking at the ISP.

Perhaps I should just move on.

Still in temp status.  I am back since I have an item which may be of interest.  When  uploading I put all of my limited bandwidth on the item until the seed is established.

If I am successful you will have the play Behind The Beautiful Forevers and a screen shot.  
It's a rare item shot 3 years ago for National Theatre Live  (Britain.)  The only other encode in torrents is 36Gb.
Mine is about 600 mb total.  It took a couple days.  The play is about modern day street life in Mumbai.
Includes English subtitles with English as the language.    These plays are from broadcast to movie theatres world wide are my primary interest and niche.  I just found the play.

So to review:

I'll add a few of your trackers to this make and see if my client makes the magnet properly.
I work slowly.  Just keep an eye out.

That sounds promising, just keep in mind...

If "Behind The Beautiful Forevers" is not very popular, u may need to keep seeding it yourself..  for it to stay alive.

At this point,  just try getting this  1st upload + image  successful.       Image error

Alright.  Thanks for the encouragement.  I'm used to staying on 24/7.  My archive has been going for years but
index sites have gone up and down.  I know there are beefs about recoding.  I do more than copy stuff.  There are edits for  act breaks when needed,  and sound enhancements for voice.  In this one I found and added the
trailer used when the piece was new.  Stay tuned.  I'll get it  posted.
