Here is the outside of my closet. I closed the doors on myself to see how much light is getting in and its not looking good so... I come here to ask you guys for help to eliminate this problem of light leaks so I can grow again :)

you can just use the sticky liners for doors they come in rolls found at all home accessory stores. it's just one of those things that you need to figure out the best way to do it. i have used duct tape, foil tape, black cloth, even a thick bed sheet placed as a blind to cover the door. you probably have something laying around that will quick fix this ;)

Don't try to light seal the door itself. Just hang a full sized "light-proof curtain" on the inside of the door frame (with a "flap", so you can walk through). "Panda Film" is great for this sort of thing!

T.H. is right, simply make a curtain that is entirely light proof, typically black, with an opening. The benefit of the panda plastic is it is light tight but still has the white side to reflect the light. A simple stick on zipper put on this will make a perfect doorway.
