Make Mobile Phone Ringtones and Wallpapers

Downloading ringtones and wallpapers for your mobile phone can be quite expensive sometimes. And with the frequency of how often we want to change the text and call alerts on our phones as well as the images that we show off on our displays, we'd later find out that we've spent far too much on something that could have been done for free! If you own a laptop or personal computer and have access to the internet, you'll be able to make your own mobile phone ringtones and wallpapers without having to pay for anything.

There are two quick and easy ways to make your own mobile phone ringtone. One is to manually create the ringtone and transfer it to your mobile phone, and the other is to make use of free ringtone maker websites that are available on the internet.

To personalize your mobile phone ringtone, you will need a compatible mobile phone (it has to be a newer model that supports MP3's or more advanced music formats), a connection that will enable you to transfer the ringtone to the phone (could be a USB cable or Bluetooth connection), and a music-editing program. There are many music editors which you can download for free, among which are WavePad, Audacity, Audio Producer, Ringtone Media Studio, Acoustica, and a lot more. To begin creating your own mobile phone ringtone, you will need to edit the MP3 of your song choice using any of the above-mentioned audio editing software. Depending on which program you will use, you can select or cut the part of the song which you would like to play when it alerts you for a text or a call. You wouldn't want to have an entire song playing all the while now, would you? So, to add spice and vibe to your ringtone, be sure to cut the MP3 and get only the chorus or whichever is your favourite part. Save your edited sound and export it as a new file. Connect your mobile phone to your laptop or personal computer and save the newly edited MP3 into the Music or Ringtone folder of your phone. Once loaded, you can edit the settings or ringtone profile of your mobile phone and choose the new MP3. You now have your own mobile phone ringtone!

An easier way to do it would be to make use of the features of websites such as MakeOwnRingtone.com or PhoneZoo.com. These websites will let you choose the song you want, either from an already available selection or from a personal upload, and then convert it into a ringtone which you can download to your mobile phone.

The process of making a mobile phone wallpaper is similar to that of the ringtone, except that the program you will need will not be sound editors but rather wallpaper makers such as MD Wallpaper Creator and DeskScapes. Edit the photo which you want to use, save it as a new file, then save it to your mobile phone's Wallpaper or Photos Folder via USB or Bluetooth connection. The websites which can make the task easier for you are Zedge.Net and WallpaperCreator.com.

Another benefit of making your own ringtones and wallpapers is that you can chose which songs and photos you can put into your mobile phone and personalize it. Oftentimes, download sites and providers will have a limited selection and you must only pick from what they offer.
