no hashrate or shares on earnings screen

so ive tried for the past 8 hours to use cgminer bfgminer and sgminer to try and mine litecoin but on my earnings screen my worker shows no shares and no hashrate. ive looked at configs for my GPU and tried using those but i still get nothing. in the console it appears to be hashing away and other times i get "share above target". any ideas what im doing wrong? im at my wits end.

as far as i am aware PH is a ASIC only pool, your GPU's will not work here.

The weird thing is that I actually earned some litecoin... i was able to manage 1 share about 10 mins ago... weird. maybe i got lucky.

The starting difficulty for the pool is 65536, which is extremely difficult for a GPU. It will take hours to find a single share.

You're still earning the same amount of money as if you were using a lower starting difficulty, but the variance will be high.

In addition, as someone above said, GPUs are horrible for mining scrypt or x11. I recommend finding an Ethereum mining pool, where your GPU will be much more profitable.
