As far as making torrents Bitcomet has a built-in torrent file creator, or you can use a program called Maketorrent.
A while back in one of the LOTR book-cut threads, I posted a really long and in-depth guide to creating a torrent file with Bitcomet, but that thread has been deleted. So here's a couple sites with some guides for creating torrents with a few different programs:
http://torrentfreak.com/how-to-create-a-torrent/ (This gives brief explanations for a bunch of torrent clients)
http://forums.torrentbox.com/viewtopic.php?t=11407&sid=f41b255368f0dcbcc6449eeb667e5e21 (Uses Bitcomet, lots of screenshots)
http://wiki.theppn.org/index.php/BitTorrent_Tutorial (search for "making a torrent", covers Azureus and Bitcomet).
Next time I write a guide, I'll actually save the damn thing.
Good luck.
