Ringtones in music folder

I noticed that the ringtones I've downloaded with the Mablio Ringtones app go to my music app. This means if I used my phone to listen to music I will end up having to listen to 30 second snippets of songs I use for ringtones. Is there a way to have these ringtones just show up as ringtones and not in the music app? I bought the docking station to use to listen to music but I only want whole songs.

 

Thanks.

On your computer open the program notepad

 

do not type anything in the document but select save as

 

Change the file type to All files and type .nomedia in for the file name.

 

after you save the file somewhere on your computer connect your Droid and mount.

 

Navigate to the following path

 

/com/mabilo/

 

Copy the .nomedia file you created to that directory.

 

One other option is to move all the files from the /com/mabilo/ directory to a directory /ringtones/

 

Anything in the rigtones folder is hiden from the music player and any folder with the .nomedia file are as well.
