For at least the past week, probably longer, I haven't been able to get anything to upload on Bittorrent. Downloads work fine. Otherwise my internet connection seems to be working fine. The files show up as "seeding" but the upload speed never changes from 0. I've tried it both with btfriend.py and with a set list of files to seed. I haven't tried seeding files that originate elsewhere ... guess I should try that just to troubleshoot. I'm just wondering if there's anything that happened on the site's end that might cause this. I am guessing that the problem is probably on my end. I did begin using a new router and Xbox Live at about the time this problem started.

Do you have a nonzero upload speed while downloading? Is your ISP on this list?

Perhaps nobody is simply downloading the files you are seeding?-)

Warp's probably right :) My ISP's not on that list, lucky me. Anyway, I'm happy to say that I'm seeding again. Right now only 2 of btfriend's 6 files are actually uploading, but that's about par for the course for my connection. But for over a week there, everytime I checked nothing was seeding. Thanks much to those that helped. edit: Oh, I finally saw Nitrodon's first question. Yeah, while I couldn't get uploads to work I did see a very low but nonzero upload speed once on a file I was downloading at the time.
