Ok, so i could have sworn just yesterday i saw someone post a link to download the firefly theme in midi format. I just looked for it thrice and cant seem to find it. So if someone can direct me to that thread...
The website http://www.wap.pcs3g.com/ is a place where you can download ringtones to your phone. someone would simply need to upload the firefly ringtone (and you can upload there) and then boom, we got a downloadable ringtone.
I'm guessing Haken could probably do this off fff.net the same way he has with download the serenity screen saver. Whichever works.
So...wheres that dang midi file?

EDIT...removed bad link to file in wrong format. Oh well, I tried.

Contrary to what the file extension shows, this is an MP3, not a midi.
You can't use it as a ringtone on most phones. A firefly ringtone would be very cool, though - anyone have a midi of the theme?

You can turn any mp3 into a phone ring...lyrics and all.....
I have a sprint phone (samsung N400), and it uses a special format (.QCP). If anyone is interested, I would be happy to create the ringtone.
The only problem is size. Doing the whole song would be nearly impossible. You would need to choose a certain section, maybe 10 seconds long. Most ring tones I have created need to be under 50kb in size.
The other problem is having a server with the correct mime settings for the phones to download the file correctly.
www.3gupload.com used to be a great site for info on this kind of thing.
Anyways, let me know what you guys think
They didnt call it the dark ages because it was dark.

Most phones can only play MIDIs or similar proprietary formats. MIDI files are very small, which is why you can have fairly longish (at least 40s or so) ringtones.
If your phone is high end enough to play mp3s, you can just use that directly.

I have a sprint samsung phone, and I would love to have a firefly ringtone.
May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

Ok, so I'm no expert at what i'm doing here but the website i mentioned needs the midi file to be no more than 500KB.
The midi file that was posted the other day somewhere didnt have any lyrics so i think it would work.
So hopefully we can get some kind of midi file and the Ballad of Serenity will play everytime someone calls.

Curse my inexpensive Kiocera phone! Neither of those site will work for me. I'm doubly frustrated now because I've actually gotten my greedy claws on the midi. My phone, nay my life, is an empty shell without The Ballad of Serenity! Any help?
