How do I set my own ringtone from an MP3

Well here comes my first question after recieving my Orbit 2 this morning.

How can/do I set an MP3 tune as my ringtone? (The tune is already on my memory card that is already in my Orbit).

Please, when giving me the "how to info", keep it very, very simple as I am a totally new user to Windows devices.

Hi, on your device go to phone>menu>options and choose the ringtone from the dropdown list.

Or (and I'm assuming here that the Orbit II has the HTC Audio Manager software, the same as the Touch Cruise) if you open up the Audio Manager and play the MP3 track, the soft-menu button, at the very bottom-right of the screen, has an option called "set as Ring Tone".

Re: How do I set my own ringtone from an MP3

Thanks again to you both for a speedy reply and the info you give. I must admit that I was rather "adventurous" in that I "copy & pasted" my tune into the ringtones section of the Orbits "hard drive" (if thats the right word for it). I was then allowed to select it from the drop down menu and it works perfectly!!
I am rather impressed so far with the Orbit 2 but I am sure there are going to be many occasions where I "shout help" on this forum.
Thanks guys - much appreciated.
