Part of the fun of having a cellular phone is being able to download ring tones.
There are ring tones available featuring countless familiar melodies as well as clips of popular songs.
Most phones even allow users to set an individual ring for each contact who may call them.
To start personalizing a phone, try downloading some new ring tones.
The easiest way to start is by going through the Internet settings on the phone itself.
In many cases, it is possible to connect to the Internet and download the ringtones directly.
This is the most expensive method for downloading ringtones, with each tone typically costing about two dollars and fifty cents.
If that seems a bit pricey for a ringtone, there are many ways to get them for free.
A simple online search will turn up several websites that provide free ringtones.
People who choose this method should just be careful to use a sight that does not ask them to register.
If they are asked to register, they should carefully look at all of the check boxes and make sure that they are not signing themselves up to receive several e-mails a day from the site.
The problem with many of these sites is that they usually only have ringtones of the most popular songs at the time, or well known classics.
Some people may have obscure tastes in music and want a ringtone that is unavailable.
In this case, there are many sites that allow users to upload an MP3, edit the section of the song that they would like to use as their ringtone, and send it directly to their phone.
Custom ring tones are a fun way to know exactly who is calling from the moment the phone starts ringing.
It can be a lot of fun to choose ringtones that fit the personality of the person calling so that users are reminded of them each time they call.
Try any one of these methods to start personalizing any cell phone with fun and creative ringtones.
