Mine is uncool as well. ): It has a default background, but strangely it's a very sexy default background. But regular ringtones. And I want a customized one so badly. But I have no idea how to do that or how it works or what they would charge me.. An Utena ringtone and customized ringtones for different friends would be .. *explodes*

My cellphone is kind of an old model, it doesn't have color or anything fancy and I'm not even sure if it can handle ringtones
Before I had a better cellphone and had the star wars theme with a picture of a chibi of "the bride" form kill bill. Anime ringtones are hard to find on Mexico... good music ringtones would be most correct

I have cut two parts of the Rinbu Revolution for my mobile phone ringtones. Both are at the end part, and one of them is pure musical all to the end. I use both of them for my different groups of friends. (Previously, I have used Tokini Ai wa for calls from my family.)

Yet, I use some ringtones from other animes for other groups of people. E.g. Rewrite, Tobira o Mu Koe (both are from Hagane no Renkinshitsushi), Purachina (from Cardcaptor Sakura) , Gloria~Kimi ni Todokedai (from Slayers).

As regard to moblie phone wallpapers, recently I am using a photo, for I find that none of my Utena-themed pics fit in my mobile phone theme.

I can't edit my screensavers

The vast, vast majority of people I know have custom ring tones and wallpapers, most of which involve country songs. I suspect you Aussies are just as up on things though, unless your phones run on kangaroos on wheels. But like Yasha says, we're very poor. I'm glad I built the gallery when I did, I couldn't dream of buying all the artbooks (and then ripping them apart) now.

On my old laptop with the CD that came with my phone, I was able to create my own screensavers with Photoshop and ringtone MP3s with Nero and then upload them into my phone.

If any of the Utena forum members would like a Utena based screensaver for your phone, just tell me what the demensions it should be and what format *.bmp, *.jpg or *.gif.

You can have screensavers on your phone? ..Oh wait, my default one is like that. Nifty! *cell-phone clueless*

Okay.. does anyone know how to make/get those nifty custom ringtones? Or set different ringtones for different friends? Because that would be awesome. I use Cingular, but I have no idea if it's the service that counts or the model.. It's a fairly new model, though.

The Camera Phone I have, I got from the 3 (ThreeStore) network.  As I'm not exactly rolling in dough either, I was able to get my phone from them for $10 a month for 24 months + cost of certain phonecalls and SMSs.  All 3 network phones have inbuilt camera/videocamera/internet as standard features.

In Adelaide where I live, we have a large number of Asian students who come here for their university education cos we have got world class quality unis here and its way cheaper for them to get educated here than it is to get educated back home, well anyway, they all have they cameraphones but they almost never talk into them, instead they text message (SMS) each other constantly.

I guess thats one of the reasons why cameraphones are big over here, cos we are trying to 'keep up with with the Wongs' as it were. *heh*

I think you can have mp3s and pictures and such mailed to your phone by other people for a small charge per message. I might be wrong though.

Yes there are pics and ringtones available as well as music and video clips but I prefer to use the softeware that comes with the phone that allows you to upload/download any pictures and mp3s you like which also allows me to avoid SMS and MMS spam that you would get if you used something like Jamster or some other company to get your ringtones from.

I actually just got a new phone (her name is Gigi), so I haven't figured out the customization yet -although I have figured out how to take compromising photos and send them to my poor boytoy who happens to be three thousand miles away. At the risk of running into Flagrante Delicto territory, this has so far proven to be very...strengthening to the relationsip (on his part, anway).

But yeah, On my old phone I had The Killers "Mr. Brightside" as the generic, "The Godfather Theme" when the boy called, "Papa Don't Preach" for the parentals...and a couple others customized. That one though, didn't have a way to really change the screensaver, so it was bue. This one has a really close up pic of my eye!

My cell phone has a completely crappy ancient LCD display. It can display white dots and black dots, and that's about it. And that's fine by me. I have no need for pictures or tunes in my cell phone. I find it plenty confusing with just white dots and black dots, thankyouverymuch.

Sounds a lot like my phone.
I guess this means no custom screensavers. I wouldn't use that phone very much anyway, but it has a nice clock function and is actually able to get me up in the morning. And sometimes I need it at work too.

Tehe, talking about ancient, I have a Nokia 3210. It used to be my brothers, then my dads and in the end, mine. It's big as a brick, so it has secondary uses as a weapon. :D I have a cute wallpaper for which I have no idea how it got there. It has a little pixel kitty and the text "Big smile for message" Click.

I'm still using a Black and White mon cell, so I don't use a screensaver.
But I use the ring tone of the Taiwanese Band "F.I.R", song "流浪者之歌"(A Waif's Song)

I would love that~ Hee...

I suspect if I had waited longer (or had been willing/able to shell out more $$) I'd've been able to get an MP3-ringtone-enabled phone. However, my provider (Telus) seems stupid re: stuff like that. Example: You know those polyphonic ringtones you can buy/find online and get Media Messaged to your phone? Whenever I try that, it doesn't work. Or rather, my provider is stupid and has all the phones set up, so you can only use ringtones that you've bought from them. On the upside, I have Ayumi Hamasaki's Step You as a ringtone, because they actually offer some Non-NA artists for download. It probably wouldn't be my first choice, but it was something.

So. Other than that, no fancy wallpapers, no fancy screensavers (Mine's a clock.)

But! I do have the...Nokia...1205i? I think? Point is, it's got a clear faceplate and comes with inserts that you can print on with your inkjet printer, to skin your phone however you want. So I've had Anthy from...Mm, too lazy to find it, but the picture from Luxury Illustrations with movie!Anthy, Utena, Touga, Akio(Dios?)....with the girls sitting and the reaching, and the guys lying down. You know. Anyways, yeah, Anthy cropped out of that.

...Mind you I'd've probably changed it over time except that I can't find the rest of my insert sheets. ;;;;

I'm gonna have to get a new one some time soonish though. Unless I wait 'til May for my contract to expire. Because my battery is crap and buying a new one would be $70. :/

Sometimes I use my phone for calling to talk to people (though not as much as I would've, say, in highschool, if I had had a phone) but mostly for things like "Call me before you head over?" or "I'll call you when I get there" or "I'm lost, where am I going?" Other than that, it's really mostly for the text messages.

Hahaha.

I have a mobile, but I'm not fond of it.  O;

The only modifications I've done to it since I got it was switch the ringer to vibrate.
