Description
If you are trying to build a .torrent file in OS X of a folder that has a pasted icon on the folder, some sites might report the torrent as broken. I have tested this on a certain pirate site, after uploading the .torrent created from a folder with a custom icon. After it failed I went and deleted the icon file using the Terminal, created the torrent again, and it uploaded perfectly fine.
If you need me to go into more detail, I can. But this is easily recreated, at least on that site.

Did you add this icon before or after creating the torrent file?
Before. It's not a matter of not being able to seed, the torrent file won't upload to the site.

What error do you get when uploading?

Depends on the website. It seems to build fine as far as the program's concerned. But when I try to upload it to a website it tells me that the torrent file seems to be broken/corrupted.

- Milestone changed from None Set to 1.40
The image for the icon appears to be 0 bytes, which is causing the problem.

This is an issue with libtransmission adding 0 byte files, which it should not do (percent for these 0-byte files appear as -100%)
