Reputable ringtone site?

T-Mobile doesn't have a great selection of ringtones, but I am nervous to try any of the third-party sites for fear of getting an unwanted $20/month subscription... Are there any sites that you know are reputable? I am looking at www.ringtonejukebox.com right now. It seems straight-forward, but it's hard to say...

Of course, if there are any other ways to turn songs into ring tones and get them from my Macbook to my PEBL, I'm all ears...

Just drag your audio files from iTunes to iMovie.
Cut it appropriately.
Then, save it with advanced settings "Sound To Wave" then, import it to iTunes, "convert to mp3 92kbps", than drag that file to desktop.


Then transfer the song to your phone via bluetooth.

I second the above post. I make my own, cut them down to the chorus of a song on QuickTime, and then export to my phone as an mp3.

Oh, I lower the quality to 64kbps as well.

Wow, I had no idea I could do that. Can I just use iSync to get the file onto my phone? (I have a PEBL)

I was using Xingtones, but the demo only lets you make one song, and you need the internet on your phone to use it properly.
