Please help - recovering ringtones

I had my 8300 flashed with new firmware yesterday. The tech said if he didn't have to back up all my ringers it would save about 20 minutes. I said go ahead, because I had them backed up in BitPim, or so I thought. To cut to the chase, I lost about 20 ringtones. Nothing fancy, but I would like to get them back. I got most of them off of someone's website - found it through here - almost a year ago. I had then emailed the mp3's through "Fun for Mobile" and got the .mids in my phone. I had old school ringers like the Magnum PI theme, Andy Griffith theme, Leave it to Beaver, Cheers, Three Stooges, Rocky, Marine Corps and Army Hymns, Kung Fu fighting, The Good, Bad, and Ugly, A-Team theme, All in the Family, Sopranos, Batman (tv show), etc. Can anyone direct me to a place where I might find any of those again? I would really appreciate the help. Thank you.

Thanks, but how do I save the sound clips from that site? I can find some of the themesongs I want, and play them on that site, but can't figure out how to save them. When I right click on what I want, it just says "Thanks for visiting TV's Greatest Hits".

look at the little player window ( it really is a quicktime player window , at least it is on my PC ) , on the bottom right hand side is a 'arrow button' pointing down..

left click on the button and choose 'save as source', and the mid file will be saved to your pc

Thanks for your help, but no joy. Mine is different for some reason. All I have are the play, pause, FF, RW, etc. No down arrow. I wonder if the fact I use IE 7 has anything to do with it? I can't find any way to save the sound clips from there. Anyone????
