Where to get merchandise made?

They seem like a viable option - and the 10% for board upkeep is an excellent idea!

Zazzle doesn't offer any black shirts, but they do offer colors and a great variety of styles. Soemthing they also offer is chemical infusion (is that hte correct term?) printing. I'm not so sure why everyone is hung up on screen printing as professional shirts are not screen printed. Screen printing is much much better than heat transfers (aka iron-ons which is what cafepress does) but infusing the ink is the only way to get a non-"puffy" image with a high color pallette that is still durable. Concert t-shirts and children's shirts are often printed using this method. Screen printing is used more for printing generic corporate logos on various materials, including shirts, jerseys and garmet bags. It's a super low pallette count (usually 2-4 colors max) and has a raised slick feel to the ink, which is really annoying imho.
Just some stuff thought I would share, not that it makes that much of a difference. So in case you haven't figured it out, so far zazzle gets my vote. :)

Looks good but they have a 8 color maximum limit. That doesnt' sound so bad, but they count colors for front and back seperately, so that's 4 colors per side. Also they use dot printing technique for high color pictures, which makes a very noticable dither on graphics.
Not saying it's a bad solution, it's just it would extremely limit the design we used.
