To imagine so many people workin [12:40] <Whisperwing> What was it I was giggling so hard over this morning again? I think..... I think maybe it was the little disagreement over whether or not the kitten's name is Dawlish, which of course, it is, yeah? [12:40] <andythehouseelf> *working SOO hard is incredible [12:40] <danae24> thanks for all that hard work you do [12:40] <danae24> :) [12:40] <JohnTLC> Oh yeah, leakys staff is HUGE [12:40] *** GregoryTheSmarmy has joined #lounge [12:40] <JohnTLC> HUGE i tell ya [12:40] <wulung> all them folks are amazing!!

[12:43] *** SunnyElf left #lounge [] [12:43] <magicmeg8> bye nomes [12:43] <GregoryTheSmarmy> what's the modcast topic? [12:43] <Theoriser> portraits [12:43] <danae24> the paintings [12:43] <LJ> Portraits [12:43] <DorisTLC> Portraits [12:44] <GregoryTheSmarmy> cool! [12:44] <GregoryTheSmarmy> can't wait to listen... [12:44] <DorisTLC> it was fascinating - to think of how those paintings could help [12:44] <Whisperwing> Right, you know, I've wondered whether or not Dean Thomas would get into making portraits or paintings [12:44] <Whisperwing> Jo's mentioned a couple of times he's a good artist. [12:44] <GregoryTheSmarmy> yeah... If something major happens at Hogwarts in book 7 I expect they could play a role... [12:45] <LordValerius> that would be cool [12:45] <magicmeg8> Had you considered the topic of portaits before? [12:45] <GregoryTheSmarmy> yeah it would... and it's interesting about Dean, too [12:45] <JohnTLC> I always wondered about the portiats myself [12:45] <danae24> yes, but I think you need to enchant the painting, like Hermione did with one banner.......... [12:45] <GregoryTheSmarmy> well, they have been known to help the Trio before [12:45] <Wizardmom> I never really thought about portraits, until DD died [12:45] <JohnTLC> if they varried from portrait to portitrat of the same person [12:45] <Theoriser> the portraits confuse me [12:45] <GregoryTheSmarmy> like Sir Cadogan [12:46] <JohnTLC> when they go to "visit" their other portrait [12:46] <Whisperwing> I think the portraits only become active after the death of the wizard, like, the Chocolate Frog cards have wizerd photographs rather than paintings, and then when Dumbledore passed, his portrait just appeared in the headmaster's office. [12:46] <andythehouseelf> Yeah John. I never considered the fact there might only be one "person" for each portrait of them [12:46] <Whisperwing> So maybe Sirius has a portrait in 12 Grimmauld Place? [12:46] *** Val_Halla has quit [Bye] [12:46] <GregoryTheSmarmy> What purpose would it serve to have a portrait of Sirius? [12:46] <Whisperwing> Why not? [12:47] <Theoriser> yes whisperwing, if they are created by an enchantment, like dumbledore's portrait [12:47] <JohnTLC> i just cant imagine there would not be one of him [12:47] <danae24> It interesting to think that they can "visit" their others portraits in other places....... but I never thought about the age or anything like that..... [12:47] <Wizardmom> My question would be, how do the portraits just appear? Like Dumbledore's just appearing after hisdeath [12:47] <Jrg1990> *needs to get a drink before he dies of heat.* brb guys [12:47] <Theoriser> that would be interesting [12:47] <Whisperwing> If only to drive home the point that the portraits realy aren't the same as the real person [12:47] <JohnTLC> he had a wealthy family [12:47] <GregoryTheSmarmy> well yeah, I'd love to have Sirius back of course, but does he have something more to add to the story..? [12:47] <andythehouseelf> I think the mirror would play that purpose though [12:47] *** Islwyn13 has joined #lounge [12:47] <danae24> I dont think Sirius has a portrait [12:47] <GregoryTheSmarmy> right Andy [12:47] <JohnTLC> its odd, its like, he ought to have a portait, and assume he does, but i dot think we'll ever see it [12:47] <magicmeg8> they'd probably have burned anything related to sirius. [12:47] <Islwyn13> Hey, everyone, have other people been able to download PC46? [12:48] <krima> I g2g, bye! [12:48] <Islwyn13> I can't seem to get it [12:48] <Whisperwing> And I think the only reason Walburga Black's portraitspouts those insults all the time isn't because of the limitations of the portrait, but because the woman herself went insane before she died. [12:48] <JohnTLC> we sould have seen it in book 6 if we were gunna see it all [12:48] <danae24> Sirius was blasted off the tapestry, if he had a portrait, it's most likely for the Black' [12:48] <andythehouseelf> Yes I agree John. It would seem weird to ignore it for a book. [12:48] <LordValerius> yeah [12:48] <danae24> to have removed it already [12:48] <Wizardmom> But then again John, we didn't see 12 Grimmauld Place either though [12:48] <PotterRat> yeah [12:48] <danae24> sorry............. I hitted enter before I ended typing... [12:48] <Theoriser> well maybe he doesn't have a portrait, because it was only phineas and his mother that had portraits in grimmauld place [12:48] *** krima has quit [Bye] [12:49] <PotterRat> Would the blacks want a portrait of him in the house? [12:49] <JohnTLC> then itd just be mean of everyone else to not think that harry woudl want to see the portrait and take it to him [12:49] <Islwyn13> anyone? [12:49] <JohnTLC> for a whole year [12:49] <Whisperwing> There were portraits everywhere, theirs were the only ones thatplayed a role in the story. [12:49] *** yellowpepper2311 has joined #lounge [12:49] <Theoriser> Islwyn13, try direct downloading it if it isn't working on iTunes [12:49] <Whisperwing> And maybe it can't be taken down any more than his mom's can [12:50] <Theoriser> that works for me sometimes [12:50] <Islwyn13> I did, said the file wasn't found sad [12:50] <yellowpepper2311> Howdy folks! [12:50] <GregoryTheSmarmy> oh yeah, I agree John... [12:50] <wulung> Hey Yellowpepper!! [12:50] <danae24> I think only really great people have portraits........... people who have done something.......... [12:50] <yellowpepper2311> hey wu! [12:50] <GregoryTheSmarmy> now sirius's death is so past already [12:50] <Whisperwing> What did Sirius's mum do then? [12:50] <GregoryTheSmarmy> LOL [12:50] <danae24> I dont know....... maybe we will find out later [12:50] <JohnTLC> she was just the matriarch or whatever [12:50] <Theoriser> did you try direct downloading from pottercast.com? [12:50] <Islwyn13> She began the tradition of beheading house-elves? [12:50] <JohnTLC> i would think a family like that, would all ahve portraits somewher [12:50] <Islwyn13> yeah, I did [12:51] <danae24> No, Sirius aunt started that........ [12:51] <Wizardmom> Yes John, you just put what I was going to type [12:51] <Whisperwing> Oh no, that can't be, there were dozens of them [12:51] <Islwyn13> hit the button that said "direct download" and it said file wasn't found sad [12:51] <Islwyn13> oh, that's right, Danae, forgot smile [12:51] <LJ> Islwyn13: there's a PotterCast support thread in the PC Forum, there might be something there than can help you, if not post there and someone will give advice [12:52] <Theoriser> I'll pm you on the lounge about it, hold on [12:52] <JohnTLC> i see that error too now... [12:52] <JohnTLC> hmmm [12:52] <Islwyn13> Oh, I"m getting it now...thanks though! [12:52] <Whisperwing> Sirius had to have a portrait, if he had the authority to bequeath the mansion to Harry. [12:52] <Theoriser> oh ok lol [12:52] <danae24> I think that the veil is going to help Sirius communicate with Harry somehow.............. [12:52] <Islwyn13> hit the update button in iTumes and it seems to be working now ;) [12:52] <Islwyn13> should happen automatically, but, oh, well, so long as it works smile [12:52] <Theoriser> not necessarily, he could just have written it in a will [12:52] <Theoriser> he doesn't have to have a portrait for that to happen [12:52] <Wizardmom> I agree Theo [12:53] <danae24> yes, I guess because Sirius was a Black that gave him the right to bequeat Grimmauld Place to Harry [12:53] *** Val_Halla has joined #lounge [12:53] <GregoryTheSmarmy> wheee, I'm listening now... [12:53] <Whisperwing> I'm just saying, even if he was burned off of the tapestry, he was still family enough to have the authority to bequest the property, ergo he probably hasa portrait there somewhere. I'm going to guess in the room where he'dbeen keeping Buckbeak. [12:54] <Islwyn13> wouldn't harry have noticed it was there, though? [12:54] <Theoriser> na I just think he was able to leave his property to harry because it was his [12:54] <andythehouseelf> !halfop JohnTLC [12:54] <Islwyn13> don't know if htis has already been mentioned, but Dumbleodre didn't have a portrait in the headmaster's office until after he died [12:54] <Theoriser> yeah [12:54] <Islwyn13> perhaps they appear by magic after a wizard's death? [12:54] <Wizardmom> I'm not so concerned about a portrait of Sirius, but I wonder about how the portrait of DD's is going to play in [12:54] <Whisperwing> I think we agreed the portraits come into being at their deaths [12:54] <danae24> I dont think so, because if that had happen, Phinneas would have been able to go up to Sirius'es painting................. [12:54] <Theoriser> maybe for the headmasters in hogwarts only [12:54] <JohnTLC> its all very confusing,we just dont know enough about it yet, these portriats [12:55] <JohnTLC> especailyl how they are created [12:55] <Whisperwing> We don't know that he didn't though [12:55] <danae24> and in no time Jo mentions a portrait of Sirius [12:55] <JohnTLC> i think itd be hilarious if they were actally painted [12:55] <JohnTLC> not eveybody paints the same [12:55] * Whisperwing blows raspberries [12:55] <andythehouseelf> Yeah. Do we think theyre prepared before hand? [12:55] <JohnTLC> one person would be in watercolror or fingerpaint [12:55] <JohnTLC> thatd be aweseom [12:55] <Wizardmom> haha...a fingerpainted DD [12:55] <Whisperwing> A fingerpainted enchanted portrait... [12:55] <LordValerius> funny [12:55] <danae24> fingerpaint portrait of Dumbledore............. [12:55] <Theoriser> LOL [12:55] <JohnTLC> could you imagine a fingerpainted portrait talkin to you? [12:55] <Theoriser> you wouldn't be able to tell it was him [12:55] <Islwyn13> They might be painted before hand [12:55] <Whisperwing> Probably the only way he'd have allowed a portrait to be done of him [12:56] <andythehouseelf> then we have the question of if it changes depending on which portrait its actually in LOL [12:56] <Islwyn13> that would support the notion that you have to be someone of consequence to get someone to paint you a portrait [12:56] <danae24> that would be really hilarious........ a really bad and scary portrait talking to you.......... [12:56] <magicmeg8> Lori Damarell brought up a question in the Modcast concerning whether portraits grow with a person. For instance, does a portrait of a young boy have the same experiences as his portrait as an old man? What are your thoughts on that? [12:56] *** dumbleydore18 has joined #lounge [12:57] <dumbleydore18> hi [12:57] <Wizardmom> I was really confused by all that [12:57] <Islwyn13> I don't think the subjects of portraits would age [12:57] <Whisperwing> Well, there's a portrait at Hogwarts of a young girl, and unless she died tragically young, I'm guessing that one didn't get any older. [12:57] <danae24> I think the portraits age like in "Dorian Grey's portrait".................... up to the age they died......... [12:57] <magicmeg8> hi dumbleydore smile we're talking about the modcast in today's Pottercast. right now we're talking about what they know. [12:57] <Theoriser> that's really confusing, but my theory would be that they don't [12:57] <Whisperwing> Any more than a wizard photograph would. [12:57] <danae24> and that gives them all the experience they had in this life............ [12:57] *** DewyTLC has quit [Bye] [12:58] <JohnTLC> i dont thin the portraits age, but they probably have the mental age they would have had when they died [12:58] <dumbleydore18> I don't think a young boy would have the same experience as an older man...older man=more experience [12:58] <Islwyn13> Actually, I think Danae may have a point... [12:58] <dumbleydore18> i'm confused by this question [12:58] *** yellowpepper2311 left #lounge [] [12:58] <Whisperwing> I think there's a difference as well between real portraits and paintings that were simply created.

[12:58] <wulung> Sue!!!!!!! [12:58] <andythehouseelf> hey sue [12:58] <Val_Halla> so a baby portrait of DD would have the personality of him as an adult? [12:59] <Wizardmom> Woot! Sue! [12:59] <JohnTLC> SUE OMGSGSOGMSG [12:59] <magicmeg8> Hola Sue smile [12:59] <SueTLC> Squeeful Monday everyone! [12:59] <JohnTLC> :-* [12:59] * Whisperwing giggles at Johm [12:59] <SueTLC> hahahaha *hearts John* [12:59] <andythehouseelf> !halfop SueTLC [12:59] <dumbleydore18> I am now listening to the podcast [12:59] <Whisperwing> er, switch that m for an n, yeah [12:59] <Theoriser> oh that's another thing, how do they get enchanted so they're the right person? [12:59] <Jrg1990> lol only you could get away with saying that john! [12:59] *** MarySamantha has joined #lounge [12:59] <JohnTLC> ;) [12:59] <Theoriser> like somebody as a baby, they would have to be enchanted to specifically be the person they were designed to be [12:59] *** TheGuruOfSloth has joined #lounge [13:00] <LJ> Hi J [13:00] <Whisperwing> Jason! [13:00] <Wizardmom> Hey Jason [13:00] <TheGuruOfSloth> hello smile [13:00] <Theoriser> hi guru [13:00] <danae24> I thinking they use some kind of charm, like the one that Hermione used on one banner they did for Griffindor...... [13:00] <andythehouseelf> hey jason [13:00] <SueTLC> Guru! squee! [13:00] <JohnTLC> exactly, OR, what if they painting was painted so poorly, you dont even recognize who its upposed to be [13:00] <wulung> Hey Jason! [13:00] <danae24> Hello Jason!! [13:00] <TheGuruOfSloth> Squee! hehe [13:00] <Islwyn13> heya, Sue and Jason smile [13:00] <magicmeg8> Hey Jason smile [13:00] *** kyrane has quit [Bye] [13:00] <Theoriser> yeah that's what I was trying to say but really badly :P [13:00] <dumbleydore18> I have a question about the portrait thing....why can people in portraits go from one to another? think sir cadagon(sp?) there was a thing about how headmasters couldn't go into other portraits, but why can others do this? [13:01] <danae24> Maybe the person who is in the portrait knows and can change himself [13:01] <Whisperwing> right, I think that maybe being a wizard painter is rather like being a specialist, only really skilled ones can achieve the magic that brings them alive. [13:01] *** MarySamantha left #lounge [] [13:01] *** hpaddict has joined #lounge [13:01] <Whisperwing> like only a metamorphmagus can change appearance at will. [13:01] <Theoriser> or they could just flick their wand and the painting appears perfectly [13:01] <Islwyn13> that's a good point, dumbley...perhaps the subjects can move into portraits in other buildings unless they have one of themselves there [13:01] <LJ> woot, it's hpaddict - great ModCast [13:01] <Islwyn13> rather, can't move... [13:01] <hpaddict> Heh [13:01] <hpaddict> Gracias [13:01] <JohnTLC> well these portriats, at least the ones weve seen from the books, are so photoreal and detailed, theyd take a LONG time to do for a muggle [13:02] <Wizardmom> maybe the reason we don't know a lot about portraits, they're either of no consequence of to the plot, or it's pivotal [13:02] *** kyrane has joined #lounge [13:02] <TheGuruOfSloth> I wonder if the talent of the painter determines how fully realized the portrait's personality will be? [13:02] *** futureweasley has joined #lounge [13:02] <TheGuruOfSloth> sorry, painting, not portrait [13:02] <dumbleydore18> but the old lady went into the painting of her friend during christmas break, and drank her heart out...she went into someone elses portrait...not another of herself. [13:02] <Islwyn13> hehe, either of no importance, or of critical importance, huh, Wizardmom? That makes sense ;) [13:02] <danae24> I agree with Jason.......... [13:02] <futureweasley> OK, I couldn't stay away [13:02] <hpaddict> I felt comfortable with portraits until Dumbledore's just appeared after his death [13:02] <Islwyn13> yes, but they were in the same building [13:03] <hpaddict> then that threw a new element into the whole mix [13:03] <TheGuruOfSloth> yeah, wasn't that odd hpaddict? [13:03] <danae24> maybe they can visit paintings that are nearby, if it's not one of themselves.......... [13:03] *** JohnTLC has quit [Bye] [13:03] <Whisperwing> This is why I think there's a difference between paintings and portraits. [13:03] <LJ> the Hogwarts portrait people move around in each others [13:03] <Whisperwing> eeek [13:03] <Val_Halla> How do we know it just appeared? Maybe it was in storage then hung by the house-elves [13:03] <Islwyn13> yeah, that's what I mean...they can painting-hop to other portraits so long as they're in the same place [13:03] <hpaddict> yes - so we don't know if it was painted in advance or if certain people have portraits just magically "out there" waiting until their death to appear [13:03] <Islwyn13> but if you want to go to another building or location, you have to have one of yourself to enter first [13:03] <hpaddict> oh [13:03] <hpaddict> the house elf factor [13:03] <hpaddict> that is a good idea [13:04] <TheGuruOfSloth> hmm, yeah, that makes sense Islwyn13 [13:04] <Whisperwing> Oh yes, and that one Healer in St Mungoes was chasing Ron up the stairwell, trying to tell him how to 'cure his Spattergroit'.... [13:04] <danae24> or there is an enchantement that detects the death of a Headmaster/Headmistress and makes a portrait of them appear.... [13:04] <Whisperwing> Oh! There must be portraits of the Four FOunders somewhere in Hogwarts! [13:05] <magicmeg8> Good thinking, whisper! [13:05] <hpaddict> but the healer in St. mungos - I think that was a painting rather than a portrait - if we were right about paintings being able to move within other paintings in a building; while portraits can travel from building to building [13:05] <Islwyn13> true, but you'd think they'd be in the headmaster's office, wouldn't they? [13:05] <danae24> it's kind of weird to think that we have never seen not even a drawing of them.............. [13:05] <Val_Halla> So, who was the first headmaster, do you think? [13:05] <Islwyn13> it's strange we haven't heard about them before... [13:06] <Islwyn13> hpaddict, you mean paintings are of fictional people, and portraits are of real people? [13:06] <TheGuruOfSloth> yeah, that was the term we were using [13:06] <Whisperwing> But clearly they weren't, so maybe there's a secret room somewhere, rather like the Room of Requirement, that can only be accessed ina moment of crisis for the entire school or something. [13:06] <LJ> not all the paintings in the Headmasters office are named, we could have seen the Founders already [13:06] <hpaddict> yes - paintings more as characters; portraits of real people [13:06] <Islwyn13> sorry, I'm suffering from brain fog, so I'm missing stuff I think sad thanks, Guru smile [13:06] <danae24> I think they are of both......... [13:06] <Islwyn13> but you'd think they would have been named, if they were of the founders... [13:06] <dumbleydore18> ok...this has nothing to do with the books or headmaster/mistress portraits, but has to do with paintings....at the beginning of movie 1 there's a giraffe that walks along HUGE paintings that scene is sooooo cool! [13:07] <TheGuruOfSloth> yeah, but if Harry didn't recognize them... [13:07] *** Schnoffle has joined #lounge [13:07] <Whisperwing> Maybe each one is secreted in each of the four houses' dwelling chambers. [13:07] <futureweasley> it's strange the founders portraits haven't been mentioned [13:07] <LJ> but it's through Harry's point of view, he wouldn't have recognised them -and Jo could be keeping it beack for something [13:07] <hpaddict> LOLOL - That is one of the reason I went and reread CoS and Azkaban - because the movies confuzzled me [13:07] <futureweasley> there's got to be one around [13:07] <Schnoffle> I was wondering about the founder's portraits, too [13:07] <Wizardmom> me too [13:07] <TheGuruOfSloth> they'll do that, hpaddict laugh [13:07] <hpaddict> What is in the movies isn't in the books re: Lockhart [13:07] <hpaddict> Yes! [13:07] <danae24> because I dont think the fat lady was real........... and she can communicate stuff to others........... so maybe the image of the painter of the personality of the subject gets imprinted in the paintings...... [13:07] <Islwyn13> yeah, that's possible, if Harry just didn't recognize them [13:08] <Whisperwing> Hm, maybe a discussion needs to be broached about why we haven't seen portraits of Godric Gryffindor and the three other founders. [13:08] <futureweasley> even if Harry didn't recognize them, it seems to me that Hermione would have [13:08] <futureweasley> right...agreed [13:08] <Whisperwing> a Modcast Portraits part 2? [13:08] <Islwyn13> she's never been in the headmaster's office [13:08] <Islwyn13> has she? [13:08] <GregoryTheSmarmy> wowowow, this talk with the TLC creator is so cool! *is listening* [13:08] <danae24> we need part 2!!! [13:08] <Schnoffle> I am sure Dumbledore would have pointed them out, too [13:08] <Islwyn13> only if he needed to [13:08] <Whisperwing> She was when they were caught by Umbridge's inquisitorial Squad. [13:08] <hpaddict> Or thread over in Magical Theory? [13:09] <hpaddict> Heh [13:09] <Islwyn13> no, that was Umbridge's office [13:09] <hpaddict> Post there! [13:09] <Wizardmom> And if the portraits do have some of their personality traits and memory, the founders could be helpful with Horcruxes [13:09] <Whisperwing> oh right [13:09] <Whisperwing> durr [13:09] <Islwyn13> Umbridge couldn't get into the headmaster's office...it barred itself [13:09] <Islwyn13> hehe [13:09] <Schnoffle> I would think after Harry received the sword in chamber that Dumbledore would have pointed him out if the potraite was there [13:09] *** BlondeFerret has quit [Bye] [13:09] <TheGuruOfSloth> good point Schnoffle, that would be logical [13:09] <LordValerius> yeah [13:09] <danae24> yes, I agree to schoffle [13:09] <Schnoffle> just would make sense to me [13:09] <TheGuruOfSloth> but ya never know... [13:09] <Islwyn13> that would sort of be an aside though..."this is Godric's sword...and there he is in his portrait..." [13:09] <futureweasley> Secrets...DD was still keeping secrets then [13:09] <Islwyn13> not really necessary [13:09] <Whisperwing> Very true [13:09] <Schnoffle> so perhaps the idea of hademaster/mistress wasn't present when they started the school [13:10] <Val_Halla> Yeah, but DD never told Harry about the RoR, he just talked about a room full of chamberpots [13:10] <Whisperwing> But they were the Four Founders, school founders are always honored. [13:10] <Schnoffle> I mean, i cant see the founders tryign to take too much president over the others [13:10] <futureweasley> true Val This post has been edited by magicmeg8: Jul 3 2006, 02:22 PM -------------------- |
