Default Music / Ringtones

Ok... here is my problem:
I have been making ringtones for awhile now... on this new Q it has been so nice to just cut up a song, save it as a .mp3 and off i go, send it via bluetooth and i got myself a ringtone... not brain surgery... now here is where i ran into a snag....

.... the past 3 tones i have made go through just fine. i have made the small file sizes thinking it might have something to do with that... but i have ringtones that are 1 MB in size (i know its large but its only 1 and i wanted great sound quality on that one) but most are about 300 KB... now when i go to a contact, go to custon ringtone, place it in there and change fields, the ringtone field changes to NONE...

.... does anyone know why its doing that. Like i said, tried changing the file size and nothing, the song length is about 30 sec, i know that it is useless for longer then that being that a ring doesnt really go longer...

ANY HELP IS BETTER THEN WHAT I HAVE COME UP WITH

anyways, what bitrate are you encoding your *.mp3's at?

Is there a preferred bitrate to have it work best?

So here is a link I found that gives the tutorial I used to add ringtones as my ringers.

http://pocketpccentral.net/smartphon..._ringtones.htm

I've not set it up so I have a special ringtone for each of my friends, but I was concerned with space, so rather than using the entire mp3, I downloaded Amadeus Pro (and bought a license - http://www.hairersoft.com/AmadeusPro/AmadeusPro.html) and used it to edit down 30 seconds of the mp3s I wanted to use. I then took those mp3 files and saved them to my Q using the info above.

I wouldn't recommend using the entire mp3, as they take between 3-7 megs per entire song and your phone won't use more tha 30-45 seconds of song before going to voicemail.

Good luck.
