  don't separate the two (resume & portfolio)
  integrate them on your first impression
  your email should include a paragraph or two expressing the why and how,
  then a link to an ONLINE HTML resume that describes previous jobs and work done with examples (with links to each).
  if you are an interactive designer this is very important, give quick descriptions to projects you worked on with the company and examples a hiring manager can click on. Even if it is spec work, SHOW THAT SHIT. Just because a client wasn't wise enough to pick it doesn't mean it didn't qualify.
  If you are a print designer, take photos of your work and include them in the same fashion, integrate. Even if it is a phone pic.
  hiring people are combing through piles of emails. make it easy on them.

  providing a pdf resume as an attachment is obviously smart, but times have changed, man (smokes joint like a goddam hippy).
