I have a few albums on my hard drive. I want to start making different sound themes. There is a 12 second theme to Red Dwarf I want to insert when I shut off my computer.

The theme is a mpg, and only .wav files can be inserted into the sound themes.

Does anyone know how I can convert it to a .wav sound? I want to also be able to edit sounds in the windows XP default "sound recorder." The sound recorders only manipulates .wav sounds.

Thank you all [Smile]

OH...does anyone have any good windows themes, or do you think it is too immature?

I use Blaze Media Converter, it converst mp3's to wavs and vice versa, plus you can do some video and image conversions. It's $40, but you'll make your money back from your many friends who want their MP3's burned to CD. [Smile]

Have fun!

Question: Why is it, everytime I'm at a club, only the ugly girls wanna step to me? Like I'm ugly or somethan?

Better then the ugly girls wanting to step on you. I remember when I was still single, one of my friends picked me up in a brand new convertable mustang. He rented it to pick up "chicks."

It was probably the most humiliating thing I have ever done. He was blasting his techno and we drove from movie theater to college hang outs. It was truly sad. In my defense I was bored.

We pick up two really dumb girls who were very unatractive to us. They dissed us. Ouch.

Nah lem, you're supposed to say something like:
Question: Why is it, everytime I turn on the radio, I hear the same five songs...15 times a

Hey, I did it! It exported as a .wav file. Do you know how I can trim it? I have opened the soundbit and higlighted it, but there is no trim option I see. I see a copy and cut button, but they don't seem to do anything..hmm...

There are all kinds of ways to edit .wav files. If you want to do a lot of it, you may want to purchase or download a .wav editor. [Smile]
