I am graduating from college soon, and as a studio arts major, it would be in my best interest to get my portfolio/resume on the interweb.
How much is a good price for web hosting/domain registration?
What is a good company to go through?
I have a web developer friend who will make the webpage, and I can take care of the designing, I just know nothing about hosting.
I need sufficient space for plenty of fairly large images. I doubt I will get much traffic, but I would like to be able to quickly upgrade if the need be.

(that long ass link is for 1&1) I've had them for about two years now and they are really reliable and really cheap. I think I have about 300GB worth of data for $60 a year.
It's not web hosting, it's just an opensource php template specifically designed for portfolio's and exhitions and stuff. It's incredibly easy to set up and update, and I think it has a very pleasing minimal aesthetic.
For hosting I went through godaddy.com
Just buy a $5-10 domain, point it at the free host and make a decent template and save the $50-70 in paid hosting every year.
These days...

...is extremely competitively priced for what you get and has a lot of features.
we also talk about other random shit and clown upon each other
I'm with you, i hated 1&1 as well. And when i tried to cancel, they still charged me anyways, even though i called them and they told me it was canceled. I had to call my credit card company and tell them it was an unauthorized charge and to not accept any further attempts from them to charge my card.
Yeah, I've used 1&1.co.uk for a few personal things and we use it for our business hosting here at work. We're regulary getting 99.999% uptime over the year and we've got a very generous amount of webspace / bandwidth for what we actually pay.
