ringtones

I'm not sure if this is even possible, but I'm trying to see if there's a way to take mp3s from my computer and transfer them to my cell phone for ringtones. I'm also wondering if there's any free or cheap software that's easy top use and lets me edit down the songs, I've found a couple of Web sites for ringtone downloads, but they always start them in a wierd place (like the middle of the first verse).Anybody know how I can do this? Also, I just bought a cell phone and it's not one with itunes or anything like that.

 

I've seen software that lets you do this for like 20 bucks. I can't think of any offhand, though. But they do exist.

 

Google "Ringtone Ripper"

 

I used this one. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't.

Motorola Phone Tunes does what you want for Razr phones; about $25

 

One more question. Most of the places I found send them to your phone via text message. Since a whole file is being sent to the phone, how much would it cost when I sent it? Is there some sort of cable and program that would send it over automatically (kind of like itunes and an ipod)?

 

Am I the only one with a cell phone that, you know, rings?

Hearing "Sexy Back" whenever I get a call won't make me pick up the damn thing any faster.

 

It will if Mandy's ringtone is "Sexy Back" and Taylor's is "Promiscuous Girl," if you really want to talk to Mandy.

 

Anybody other than grandpa over here have a real answer?

 

Audacity is a freeware program for simple audio splicing.

As for getting them to the phone, I guess that depends on your phone.

 

I'd like to get the intro to "Kick Out The Jams" by the MC5 as my ringtone.

 

I've posted this before, I'll post it again. Read and heed, people. I would be a spokesperson for this site if they'd let me.

Best site. Ever. Takes any song you have downloaded and turns it into a ringtone. You pick when in the song it starts, when it stops (max is 40 seconds) and they make it.

Free.

But if you want to pay like $1, it's done almost instantly. The free one took me about 20 minutes to get mine.
