Anyone know a good place to get promotional stuff made like press kit photos with the logo and names under it, shirts, and other crap like that? We are still playing free shows and they only way we have a chance of making money is by selling stuff, but we have nothing to sell.
 
Make a CD first. Why would people buy a TShirt from a band they can't even listen to when they want to?

My two cents. For what it's worth.
 
Once we get the CD done, where do we get the shirts, press kit photos, and stuff made?
 
I would check on line for t-shirt makers in your area. As far as press kit photos are concered - it seems like you are just starting. Find someone who is studying photography - especially a student who has unlimited acess to a studio & supplies. You will both benefit s/he adds to thier portfolio, you get some free pics - since you are just starting, don't expect perfection. be happy with simple results - for now. Later, when you have a bunch of good material and are starting to get good Buzz and a fanbase - thats the time to spend $$ on professional pics, press kit work etc
 
We have pictures taken by a student in photography. We just don't know how to get 100 of them with our names and stuff on the bottom.
 
Tell him / her to take the negatives into the graphic arts department and get another student there to make up what you want.

also, try to give the people who helped you credit - like the photographer's name at the bottom of the pic, or the graphic artist's or release writer's name at the bottom of the text.
