Totally agree on both fronts: the art (and rewrite of DH) is exquisite. The anon artist has this special talent to get me to see familiar characters in whole new ways. Her work has inspired several scenes in my fic.
As to DH as it is, I think a real opportunity was missed. With HBP, Draco went from being a background character to a major actor in the events unfolding. In many ways, he drops out of the picture in DH. It's not that I always think he should have joined the Order, I just think the evolution he went through was just as important to the wizarding world as the transformation Ron went through (for instance). JKR had created a wonderful character with Draco and then she just threw that away. imho, of course.
