1. <?php
   /*
   Template Name: Portfolio
   */
   ?>
   
   <?php get_header(); ?>
   
   <div id="full_container">
   <div id="portfolio_content">
   <div id="portfolio_wrap">
   <div id="content">
   
       <?php 
           $loop = new WP_Query(array('post_type' => 'portfolio', 'posts_per_page' => 2)); 
       ?>
       <?php while ( $loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post(); ?>
       <?php   
           $custom = get_post_custom($post->ID);
           $screenshot_url = $custom["screenshot_url"][0];
           $website_url = $custom["website_url"][0];

   <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>">
   
   <span class="img">
   <?php if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) { the_post_thumbnail( 'thmb-portfolio' ); } ?>
   
   <span class="under">
   <!-- Excerpt title -->
   <span class="title"><?php the_title(); ?></span>
   
   <!-- Excerpt description -->

2. I don’t see the variable $additional_loop being set anywhere in your code. If you’re comfortable with WP-Pagenavi, install it and modify your code as follows:

   <?php
       //You need to handle the 'paged' query var for pagination!
       $paged = (get_query_var('paged'))?get_query_var('paged'):1;
       $loop = new WP_Query(array('post_type' => 'portfolio', 'posts_per_page' => 2, 'paged' => $paged)); 
   ?>
   

   Replace the following:

   <!-- Next/Previous Posts -->
   <?php if (function_exists("pagination")) {
       pagination($additional_loop->max_num_pages);
   } ?>
   

   With:

   <?php
       if(function_exists('wp_pagenavi'))
       { 
           wp_pagenavi(); 
       }
       else
       { ?>
           <div class="navigation">
           <div class="alignleft"><?php next_posts_link('Previous entries') ?></div>
           <div class="alignright"><?php previous_posts_link('Next entries') ?></div>
           </div>
       <?php }
   ?>
   

   Hope this helps!
