The folder inside your Library folder should be called Ringtones.
with an s at the end of Ringtones

And if your not using a depiction, i would remove it completely. It is basically just a webpage designed for Cydia.

If you SSH inside your phone, to Library/ and look, i bet you will see two ringtone folders. Your Ringtone folder and the normal Ringtones folder.

Hey i followed all of the instructions and when i go to add the source everything goes well like it goes through the usual normal process and then when its done i press on return to cydia then i look for my repo and its not there. Any ideas of what i could of did wrong ?

[adlyr]

When you say it "goes through the usual normal process" you are getting the Downloading Release and Downloaded Packages messages at the top, also are you using a free web host for your repo? have seen some issues with those.

It's a Cydia bug. When you click on Manage/Sources it appears again right?

Can you recommend any free FTP hosting servers?

Ok, so I use 0catch and my repo is http://Mind****.0catch.com so, the folder is called "Repo" where I have the repo. Should I enter it in Cydia as http://Mind****.0catch.com/Repo? I censor my name because I have paid themes just so I wont lose them in my PC. (It's my personal repo)

[adlyr]

Yep. That is correct. Although you might need another forward slash at the end. Mind***.0catch.com/Repo/ like that.
You can also set up the Repo folder as a subdomain and it woud be a little different. Mine for example is the repo folder in http://www.ig33kstas.com But the repo folder is set as a sub, so our Cydia repo is actually http://repo.ig33kstas.com/ (which is a public repo, but we dont host cracked or paid themes.)

And it is case sensitive, so you couldnt use repo if the folder is actually Repo

[MindGem]

Oh, right. So how do I set ti to be an sub? Because typing /Repo/ is kind of annoying.
