how to obtain a portion of a full song?

[FreakBaller12]

So I got my new phone, the htc libra or smt5800.
I want to put ring tones on it, but I don't have access to internet on it. Now i can take a song file(mp3 format) and sync it from my computer to my phone.
But I only want a portion of a song.
Now I have two options:

downloaded ringtones off of myxer.com and format the file from itunes to mp3(without using burning cds option)
or
record a part of a song that is already in mp3 format on my hard drive
