dude the ringtones are free... go to the "garage band" app on a mac.... dont have to pay a dime....

i know there is ways to do it on a pc too but i dont fuck with PC's

here are some ringtones i made using the garage band app

just double click them once you have downloaded them and they should be added to your itunes and should work with your phone....

Sure:
Open iTunes
1.) Select Edit> Preferences.  Select the Advanced tab and select the importing tab.  Switch the "import using" from mp3 to AAC.  Hit OK.
2.) Find the song you want to use as a ringtone.
3.) Right click on the song and hit "Get Info".
4.) Select the "Options" tab and change the start and end time to wherever the part you want starts and ends (no more than 30 sec).
5.) Hit OK.
6.) Right click again and hit "Convert Selection to AAC".  A new song will appear but it will be the shortened version.
7.) Once it completes, locate the newly made song in your music folder.
8.) Change the file extension to m4r.
9.) A pop-up will appear and say something like changing the extension might cause the file to not work.  Hit OK.
10.) Go back to iTunes, and select the Ringtones tab from the side bar.  The ringtones library will appear.
11.) Drag the m4r file into the ringtones library.

There might be an easier way but this is the only way I know of.
Hope this helps.  Let me know if you need more help.
