It seems if the music player can't find/play it, it can't be selected as a ringtone.
Also didn't have any joy with a custom alarm tone in it's own dir.
Max.

The folders don' t need to be within the music folder..
I have directories for notifications, alarms and ringtones at the root of the card and they all work on my Magic, as they did on my G1.
I suspect this is more likely to be that the card was not rescanned after disconnecting the phone from USB. I have noticed that periodically my Magic does not rescan it's card - usually reconnecting and disconnecting or rebooting the phone clears it, kicking the rescan of the card into life and making the tones appear in the relevant places. I have a 16gb card, which may be a cause of this..
