hipography.com is pretty straightforward:
1. Register (link in top right corner)
2. Once registered and logged in, pick option from left hand menu that meets your needs. Create an album and then upload your pics.
3. Tell people to check them out.
thehiptracker.com is a sharing site that uses Bit Torrent. The sharing is what you downloaded, it doesn't have to be something new. First off, get your system properly configured, and then download a show - if things are set-up properly your system will also be uploading data to other users who are after the same show as you. This is how you share.
You cannot buy downloads. I thought about allowing this at one point, but it only benefits the downloader, and potentially me as the site owner if the money coming in from download credit purchases exceeds the running costs of the sites I maintain for fans.
As with anything, learning how to do it properly before trying it is the best coourse of action - although it seems that very few people do that when it comes to thehiptracker...
To get your ratio in order, get your system properly configured (there is a forum on the site with step-by-step instructions for Azureus; other guides for your particular set-up can be found all over the internet), and then hop on a DVD torrent and set your upload and download speeds to 40k down and 50k upload (or a similar ratio if your connection supports higher speeds than 85k upload...)
This will grow your uploads faster than you are downloading, and will grow your total transfers diminishing the impact that your current downloads vs uploads has on your total share ratio.
