Be it from your own making, iTunes, iToner, etc.

Just tried iTunes to see how it works, don't see myself using it that much. Can't wait for iToner to have the selecting part for it, its pretty cool in iTunes.

My ringtone: Lux Aeterna by Clint Mansell (requiem for a dream)

You can use Garageband or Audacity to create the ringtone and use iToner or this MakeiPhoneringtone (http://www.rogueamoeba.com/utm/posts/Article/MakeiPhoneRingtone-2007-09-11-09-00.html)
if you don't want to use the whole song.

Marimba for me. Haven't liked any of the others, and I don't like songs for my ringtones. I have thought of making some weird effects in Logic Pro, some arpeggios or something as a ringtone.

I usually use Antique Telephone as that's one of the few I can hear in loud rooms. I did roll a few of my own using a snippet of De La Soul's "Ring Ring Ring" and a snippet from De La's "Kicked Out The House" that just repeats "P P P P P P P Put it on vibrate!"

I generally give every personal contact in my phone a custom ringtone, but my main ringtone varies between either the opening theme for "The Unit", or what it is currently, "The Old Republic" theme from Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic.

I was using the phrase from Steve Jobs vs Bill Gates "iPhone Bitch!" but one time I couldn't get to it in time and got rapid fire b-words :D so now it is sanford and son theme song.

Aloha everyone,

I've also rolled a few of my own. I copy them to a specific folder, use Audacity to cut it, then SFTP them via Fugu to my iPhone (after having first changing my root password). Currently, my main ringtone is "Mamma was a CPU" by Kraftwerk (I think), and the one for my wife is the theme for the Republic from Star Wars Episode 4.

How can you present yourself as such a YTMND fan and not have the Man Himself on your phone?? :eek:

I've got the "chant" versions of both "You're the man now dog!" and "PUNCH THE KEYS for God's sake!" on my phone....YTMND as the new email message and PTKFGS as my new SMS message. I'm also embarrassed to admit that I've got Patrik Pacard as a ringtone for someone....

BTW, thanks for the zip!
