Re: Custom Ringtones?

So, I ended up going with the Droid, and not the Eris.  Thanks to everyone for their input.

 

I soon found that making my own ringtones was a breeze.  One thing I did do before hand, was to pre-edit the MP3 for the portion which I wanted.  I use several music editing programs already, so it was simple to cut them down to a 30 second tune, and drop them into the phone.  I did try RingDroid, and it was a snap as well.  Everything sounds great!

 

I tried making some custom alert sounds as well.   These didn't go as well.  I was trying to use things from my sound effects library.  Apparently, there must be a certain bit rate/format requirement for these.  I know that the MP3s for the ringtones were recorded at 128kbps, while the sounds were WAV sounds at 176kbps.  I will attempt to convert them to MP3s and give them another try.
