Default Leaking tranny fluid

I have a 94 Civic DX, and I just recently did the clutch because it seemed like it was going out, and after the second time of putting it back together the clutch still seems to be slipping, and now it seems to be leaking tranny fluid. I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas on what I could have done wrong when I was putting it back together that I caused it to leak, or can this be related to my clutch slipping?

Is it a manual or automatic tranny? Exactly where is it leaking from, where the tranny attaches to the engine, where the axles go into the the tranny?

I mean did you use a torque wrench and torque all bolts exactly to what they need to be.

i didnt use a torque wrench on ALL bolts, just on the ones that told me to torque to a specific amount like the flywheel bolts and pressure plate bolts, the rest I just got as tight as i could.

It's probably you're input shaft seal.
