All I have is this stupid little beep. I have my own ringtones that I chopped up and emailed to my phone for different callers.

But they are too long and loud for a text msg alert. Anyone got any good ideas for some texting tones?

I was thinking along the lines of sound effects from video games (starcraft, mario, etc) But I'm open to anything.
(I'd probably prefer something that doesn't have a voice in it though.)

Anyone know of a place that has a large selection?

recommend away!

PS- I will probably make a bunch of different ones and zip them up and host it (with instructions how to get onto your phone) if anyone wants that when i'm done.

A few game ones I've used/heard used are the Zelda ring ("Item Get" or when a secret is unlocked) and the radio transmission tone in MGS

There's an old game called Starsiege: Tribes. With this game had a fantastic community, and they compiled a pack of, at the time, popculture one-onlines from all sorts of things. Movies, games, sitcoms, etc.

It's litereally hundreds of sound bites that were tied together using mods inside the game, brings back memories for me but it could serve you well.

Oh sh, sorry, forgot to mention all the sound files are located in the .vol file. To extract the files just use the self-executable in the link below. It's simple.

Well, this one has been popular around me lately. I personally think it is silly and overdone though.

The sound of a Science Vessel Exploding, it's my text tone. Nothing sounds better to a zerg player

so fucking true, good ideas! keep them coming

Like the magestrate one, and the star trek one, (really nerdy though). Also I'd prefer them to be 5-10 seconds at most. Mario 1up sound is what I had in mind when I made this thread.

I know you said no voices, but I think if you chopped up this song to play the chorus, it would really fit you.

good 80s song. but too long for text ring tone, but I might look into making a bunch of 80s ring tones. That'd be funny

Don't remember where I got it (was one of the topics where they had a bunch of SC related ringtones), but I use the sound of a Marine stim paking.
