Ring Tones
« on: December 10, 2008, 04:15:28 AM »
So I know that this might be stupid but then again I am often stupid so it doesn't bother me.

I have been tooling around on a website called www.zedge.net looking for good ring tones. I currently have the theme for Ninja Turtles for my main ring and Fresh Prince for my txt tone but I like to mix things up.

I wanted to start this thread to allow others to have some input on some wacky or funny or just plain awesome ring tone ideas to keep me going. It would also be a place for future reference in case anyone else has the affliction of habitually changing their ring tone.

I am happy with my Knight Rider and Fraggle Rock theme songs on my phone. Have kept me amused for a few years now =).

I can create my own ringtones...using songs that I have on my computer...at least when my computer is working. I've got a program that'll convert the song (if it's an MP3) and then I can choose what part of the song I want to have as a ringtone. Then I save it, and upload it. I've got like 30-40 ringtones on my phone because of it. It's awesome. And some of them are flippin' sweet.

I should make some more of them....but alas, that will have to wait for Saturday at the earliest. (Argh)

Bah, I've tried three or four different downloads and none of them work. It keeps saying Unsupported Content Type.  :(

I am saddened. I wanted the FF victory song on my phone.  :'(

That is the coolest idea I have heard. Kudos to you.

I love my phone.  It's got windows mobi on it, so all I have to do is use cool edits to cut the song down to a decent size, plop it from my comp to my phone and make it my ringtone.  I can use any song format.  It's so nice.

I love my phone too...It's sweet (and sweet is a perfect word for it, since it's a Chocolate). I'm jealous that you can use any song format, Rose....Very jealous...Oh! And you're a Bringer of Aid! This is good! This means you can save me should my revengeance against my computer's adapter take a drastic turn for the worse....(refer to Stupid Titles VII)

Is true.  I guess I'll actually have to read everything.  I hate how I go to work for six hours and everything has ten more pages... it's kind of discuraging.  :D  Just kidding... kind of.

Well. The relevant info is page 15 on...so that's not too bad....But really, the whole thing is kind of funny. Monsta and I got on a huge duel-boasting thing....It's hilarious. It's actually what I re-read to calm myself down after said stupid power adapter.....yeah. I won't continue.

And so I'm not completely off-topic. I don't know why I have so many ring tones on my phone. My phone stays on vibrate most of the time, so it's not like I'm actually able to hear the tones...sad.

I also make my own ringtones: I use Audacity (=free) to trim down mp3s, and my phone will play mp3s as ringtones, so…

I can also use mp3's for ringtones and I have the ability to cut them down to size. I was really just looking for obscure songs of clips that would be funny to use as a ring tone. You should see the look I get when my phone rings and people hear Ninja Turtles. A lot of the time isnt excitement. The same with the Fresh Prince. Odscure ring tones are the best. I mean I have like 120 songs on my phone at any given time but that's not enough for me. I want to have that song that everyone knows but they never hear.

There you go CthulhuClaus you have the idea. A good one too. And I usually just download to the computer and use a USB to transfer. If you have a browser capable phone you can send the songs right to it.

My ringtone is the sound of the TARDIS appearing.   Yes, I am a geek :D

It is set to increase volume with each ring, so it really sounds as Doctor Who is really coming to visit :D


(I found a neat website which will send the tones to your phone like a text message, just don't remember what site it was)
