Like Dane, I like to ask the same question: why not?

IMPO, I like such "simple" sites a lot more than sites which use all sorts of color schemes. Simple = easy to navigate = easy to find what you want = not distracting = fast.

Anyways, as with all sites, it all depends on who your users are...
Agreed.
However this is his portfolio, not a site which is necessarily designed for the general public. I imagine he's going to link potential employers to it and such as a showcase of his work.

Yeah, the pink isn't doing it for me either. Don't use colours which are basically the oposite of each other.
You're still breathing? Why?

I agree, black and white are horrible together.

By this logic, blue would detract most "newbie" girl "Internet Users".  I'm sorry, john-t, but your most of your post makes absolutely no valid justification for the colors of this site changing.  The site is someones portfolio, it's not aimed at "newbie boy Internet users".  Now, colors not blending, thats a good reason.  IMO, the colors are fine, btw.
