The sound you speak of is widely available on the net.

I happen to have one handy, right here.

What you need to do is find some way for your phone to capture the .mp3 file.

You can either hand enter the URL into your phone's web browser, or you can email the link to your phone and tell it to open the link in the email, which is how I have been doing it.

I have a couple "custom" ringtones that I generated this way, including the complete Outer Limits theme, but that's a bit much. I really have to edit that one down to just the control voice parts.

As an aside, In Like Flint and Our Man Flint are two of my favorite movies. They are available on DVD.

Verizon won't let you do any of that AFAIK

Worth experimenting with, though. I was quite surprised when it worked for me.

I have Cingular, though.

I wonder if I can use the phone to email the clip? Beestie, if you can't pick it up yourself, and you want to give it a try, PM me your cell #.

If you want a shorter URL, cellar.org/fl.mp3

Yep...that's the joke. [/thread]

Very good sound quality - Thanks! UT is right about Verizon not making it easy but I heard that Motorola sells software that you can use to get it from the computer to the phone via a small USB cable.

Off to find the software...

When it rings in a public place, people really notice.

Right now, though, my ringtone is a little more obscure. It's the intro to Hoods-A-Go-Go by Beru Revue.

I've never heard of "In Like Flint" either, but In Lik Flynn is sure used around here...

On another note, i signed up here today, and imagine my surprise when the FIRST topic I head to includes a fellow Victorian from Aust!! Nice to see we're get out in the world and making our mark.

Hiya BlackKat - we are even from the same neck of the woods :p.

well, well. Hows that then? Hope your side of the neck is better than mine was today... is it possible for shit to pile on top of shit?

Oh god yes it is!!

Why is it that dimsims and coke will not cure this hangover today? :greenface

I need a new ringtone. All the standard ones are used by people in cubicle land where I work. I need something unique so I know it's my phone.

Try tomato juice and salt n vinegar chips for your hangover - yum yum!! Always works for me.

I love Wolf's plain-spoken straight shooting.

Surely there are Gwennie! flavored ringtones available somewhere?

Polyphonic or mp3?
