The magazine pictures are certainly better - Draco isn't in the 
online Great Hall picture for instance. It's also a pain having to 
save them from online(they've disabled right clicking) - you'll have 
to search through your Temporary Internet Files folder and copy and 
paste them to somewhere else (not that I didn't do just that...).

Here's a link to a saveable complete and 'direct feed' copy of the 
map (note - no captions - I actually prefer it like this)-

Also a copy of a very nice picture of Harry looking out of a window 
(again, from the site, but awkward to get to - I really don't know 
why they bother with precautions) - yes, it is more interesting than 
it sounds:-

On the different POVs subject - can I just say that I think that the 
first chapter of GOF was the worst in the book, and that I honestly 
think including different POVs in future books would be a BIG mistake.
The strength of the series is its easy readability - and an awful lot 
of that hinges on the single viewpoint (as well as its almost 
complete lack of decription, but thats another matter). Its also why 
IMO HP is a childrens book - but I don't care, I like the series this 
way.
