Make sure you have your settings right (address, port etc). If you're mining locally make sure you have your bitcoin.conf setup correctly.

Make sure you use your "worker" username and password - it's different from the one you use to log into the btcguild web site.

17MH/s with the current difficulty will earn you about BTC$0.01 per day, which is about USD$0.08 per day at current exchange rates.

Here's a good chart of common GPUs: http://bitminer.info/  You'll get somewhat better MH/s than the chart shows because mining software has improved.  Figure an extra 30%.

Here's a profitability calculator you may find helpful: http://bitcoinx.com/profit/

Good luck!
