Default tranny seems to be leaking and is wet on top and bottom. any ideas of what could be causing it?

so about 4 days ago i drained out my tranny fluid and put some fresh fluid in it. A few days later i noticed that there as a spot on the ground where i park and when i looked under the car i noticed it seemed to be dripping from the drain plug on the tranny and also from the bolts where the tranny connects to the engine. I then popped my hood and looked at the tranny from the top and saw that it also seemed to be wet on top of it as well which seemed really odd. It got my radiator hose wet, my intake, and also the inside of my wheel(the side facing the tranny) the leaking seemed to have slowed down some but im just concerned because i dont know how the tranny could get things wet on top if it was leaking on the bottom. could it possibly be the seal that is going bad? the car drives normal and i would have never known any different if i didnt notice the spot on the ground. Any help would be great!

is it possible for it to leak from being over filled? i thought only an automatic transmissionwould do that. we didnt plug the tranny up until it had a slow drip to it which seemed like it was at full. so is a leak possible from over filling? would that make the whole tranny top and bottom wet?
