Yaay! I was about to change his name completely, but never mind. BTW he's german, but I got the name by mixing Zeron, Zareen, and Charon.

by **Nachtsider** Mon 20 Jul 2009 - 20:22

Ah, German. I see.

While we're on the subject of Germany...

You know all this talk about there being an Illuminati or New World Order? I'd like to ask, with all sincerity - what difference would it make if there were, indeed, an Illuminati/New World Order? Would it be bad to have them in charge? This isn't a sarcastic or rhetorical question - I really want to know. Puzzled

Anyone know of a site where I could download anime ringtones for my cell phone?

Why not just cut an mp3 down to size? You could use something like Audacity for that...

by tsundere9kagami2 Wed 22 Jul 2009 - 7:29

goddamn it TTIO how can you expect everyone in this nation to be able to do that shit goddamn it with all them cords and such and windows vista....

yeah but what he said use a free program called bitpim (it might be capatible with your phone)

http://www.bitpim.org/

it will even let you do the mp3 manipulating inside

by Ggultra2764 Wed 22 Jul 2009 - 13:06

Bitpim's not compatible with my phone.

by LoC978 Wed 22 Jul 2009 - 13:45

depending on your phone... what TTIO said. though generally nowadays they put ringtones separate from music in the phone OS... unless you have Blackberry OS, Palm/Garnet OS, Windows Mobile, or Android on it.
Also, if your phone doesn't link up to your PC easily, try sending to your phone via email (which is how I got a bunch of GSG pics onto mine).

also, tsun, cutting up an audio file isn't hard. In most editing software, the sound is given a visual representation (denoting volume). You just listen to the file, note where the part you want begins and ends on-screen, then drag to select the rest of it, and delete.

here's what it looks like in the program TTIO mentioned. Personally, I like using Cool Edit more, 'cause I like ripping audio from video files... but that one comes at the cost of some slightly tricky piracy.

what type of phone is it ?

Got the program just today and tested out a 20-second section of the OP song to Serial Experiments Lain, Duvet, with it. My stupid-ass phone has a 300 KB size limit for downloads of any kind so I had to trim off a second from the clip in order to download it. Otherwise, the clip comes in crystal-clear on my phone as a ringtone.

Using my 'Print Screen' function to take screencaps from Windows Media Player videos isn't working. I don't know how to describe this weirdness; the images I paste onto my Paint working area refuse to keep still. In that when I unpause the video, the video sort of 'continues playing ' in Paint, too. And when I turn Media Player off, the image I've saved turns black. Help me, please!

by tsundere9kagami2 Fri 24 Jul 2009 - 4:42

i know what you mean

but i forgot how i got over this

try saving the image before you ever do anything to media player

by **Tommygunner70** Fri 24 Jul 2009 - 6:35

I got something for ya bro.

I use a program called FRAPS. its a piece of in game recording software which is often used to create fan made in game footage of the game play.

However this can also be used with media player and the like because it utilized the same kind of 3D environment as a game which Fraps seems to recognize easily. It is also capable of making screen shots and saving them into JPG easily.

While recording in game though, and this also apply's to when your recording from media player or Youtube, Fraps doesn't compress the files it creates because this would take up to much CPU with would render a game unplayable.

10 minutes worth of recording can easily come down to 4GB.

Anyways, here is the cracked installer I have: http://www.mediafire.com/?tmyrtdljmtw

I don't think its possible to take screencaps from Media Players on XP.

I suggest downloading VLC media player.

http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-windows.html

Its a free media player that can play and crapload of more files than WMP. You can 'snapshot' option to take a screenshot of whatever you're watching, and it'll automatically save the image to your Pictures folder.

Wrong, I am doing it all the time with Fraps. But the VLC option also works I guess.

Advice taken, guys - thanks a bunch!
