Answer 1

I like the second one. The design of the portfolio itself is very nice, which is very important for a portfolio especially one for design. The third one looks like a regular blog and the last one looks cheap. The first and second look very professional and nice, but the second one has the nicer layout and colors.

Answer 2

i like the second one because it is easy to understand and navigate..but i love the way the thirds pictures are taken and cropped..a good portfolio usually lets the pieces speak and i think the second way definitely does that make sure you use text as a graphic element first and then second to tell the story because most employers wont read every piece of text but will look at your designs and layouts
