A hold-your-hand and walk-you-thru-each-step guide?

It was pretty easy the first time I did it. Drag all the roms into torrent
zip (it is a GUI right?) and then when you start the torrent point it to
the newly zipped roms.

I just went to the site and found my account deleted. I hadnt been there
in a while and I guess they did a cleanup (noticed that on the news page
but never got am email telling me about it)

I thought something needed to be done first to make the hash on the zip
files match the ones in the torrent. Also, is this making a copy of the
rom folder? (hard drive space worries)

Sorry, guess I'm not communicating properly today. I have rom backups
elsewhere. Does dragging the rom folder into torrentzip create a
separate copy of the rom folder or change the existing rom folder?
There is not sufficient space on the drive for 2 rom folders.

Probably my reading comprehension skills, sorry...

No, it zips them in the current directory, there may be an option to do
otherwise, its been a while. I'd back up the current folder somewhere
before attempting it though.
