don't like it

That’s fair. We could make that criticism constructive by sighting specific examples or a reason.

slow gratuitous scrolling always bothers me.
your font makes me hate myself

Doesn't do much for me either, but I'll try to be constructive...
The contact page looks okay but why do you have the grey rectangles in the background? Maybe if things were aligned to a grid it wouldn't hurt as much.
In your portfolio, the skateboard site doesn't load, the bridal site is a little bit terrible (don't suggest you use that one) ... I guess you're just starting out, though.
Your scrollbar action needs some attention, it's too slow and jerky.
Maybe if you try to focus the mood of the site more. That courier font could be okay for some kind of old grungey typewriter look, but the translucent grey thing goes against it. What are you trying to convey with your design?

nuggler, your little running guy cracks me up to no end. I am going to check out the rest now.

"your font makes me hate myself"
That’s pure genius.Thanks though Good comments on the constructive side. It’s appreciated.
Planning on adding some sort of detection to the scroller so it stops at the top and bottom.
The speed of a scroller always bothers me, too afraid to make it lighting fast, don’t want to freak people out. I just have to find a speed that works and is smooth.Hit me some more, I can take it.

it looks kind of washed out (not enough contrast).
helvetica doesn't look really good with that courier style font.
no need for the boxes in the navigation, just have the text change colors.
the portfolio section looks a little messy... maybe align everything to the left.
got a logo?
fix the scrolling.

Yeah, the header font struck me in it's wrongness, and not in a good way. My first emotion when I viewed your site was very close to what a previous poster said about wanting to kill themself, in that it's depressing, grey. lonely. How does this approach sell your skills. Are you trying to bore away potential clients on purpose. Where's the passion?
Try harder. This design won't help you. it won't impress anybody. Fuck minimal if it holds you back. Learn some aesthetic finesse then try minimal - Until then it's just apathy.
I'm obviously not working at full capacity, but at least I'm anonymous. Work longer. Try harder.
