If you've come because of the hot girl advertised in the Chat Thread, please see enclosed:
I've been feeling that not having a web portfolio is somewhat of a dumb thing, so I sat down and made one.

It's 75% there. I got my layout as I want it, but I still gotta get to work on the actual gallery lightbox which is a javascript thing that I found online... and javascript is somewhat horrifying. The content on the bio will be shortened down considerably in future revisions, and I'll add some images there to liven it up.
What I want from you guys is your input on the layout and overall scheme of the page. Also, I'm trying out web fonts for the very first time, but I've seen it doesn't work on all browsers. If you see any Times New Roman anywhere, let me know what device, OS and browser you're using.
There is also a mobile version.
This one still has a lot of work to go, but I'd also like to get feedback on it.
Thanks, guys!

Your site link is pointing toward this thread.
I think one thing you should do is put together a bangin' resume. Not that yours isn't impressive, but the format is a little dull. I would design it with a theme in mind.
I am doing the same thing as you, never had a webfolio site, putting one together. Yours looks really clean and off to a good start!
Cake, you're supposed to be able to click them soon enough, I have not set up the gallery yet. I am still working on what content to keep or discard, but that section will either be seriously edited or discarded completely.
As for the Who's Hector section: every time I apply for a gig I would send them a personalized print portfolio with their name and a cover letter directed at them. My original intention was that I would continue to carry this out in my web page, I would replace the area that says who's hector with something that wold say "Hey, Cake!" and when you click on it, it's basically praises what ever company I'm applying for and tells them why I'm excited to be on their project. I would further personalize it by removing the header that says Hey, Hector! and putting up "Hey, Cake!"
(That's a lie of course. I spent a couple of summers with them but I'd hardly say they raised me.)
If you're going to link to a PDF version of your resume, you should probably let people know that it's a PDF link.
Also, your bio has some spelling issues. I tried to bold my changes but I just deleted a few things too:
