What's yr ringtone?

[mrpee]

Just got a new phone â?? no, not that one â?? and I puzzled over the problem. Should I not use one? Make a statement of hipness? Go with something retro? Just vibrate?  Change it every day?
 
 I ended up choosing "Calling Dr. Love" by Kiss â?? which prob. says all you need to know right there.

I have software for ringtone creation. I use different songs for different people in my address book but otherwise a generic tone for everyone else. E.g., "Mr. Suit" for a friend whose last name is Suit and a Janacek passage for a friend studying Czech music.

For summer, it's the Beach Boys' "Sloop John B."  But I have an ever growing collection of tones for different moods.  I'm a consumer.

i change mine up a lot...
 
 i've had everything from 'banquet' by bloc party to 'intergalactic' by the beasties to my favorite... the super mario bros. theme.
 
 but it's currently 'smile' by lily allen. *shrug* it's a fab summer song and it was quite appropriate at the time i applied it to my phone. i think i may be heading back to the super mario bros. theme soon though.

Software for ringtone creation?  Can you explain?  I'd love to get one particular song that I have as an MP3 converted into a ring tone, but I don't have the means.  Also, I'm lazy.

you can also do it with a bluetooth adapter, which i keep meaning on buying...
 
 on my last phone, i played it super cheap and just used the recorder function to record mp3s playing from my computer speakers and then applied as ringtones. it took some playing around with, but worked.

I don't really have a song ringtone yet, but I really want

People who use ringtones in public are assholes.
