Here is a tip that will help some people with finding those phrases. Try looking between Diablo's horns, in the black space, the words are right there. If u can do the paint thing, fill in the spaces between Diablo's horns with blue and the message will pop up, heh.

Most of the Diablo easter eggs seem to deal with people on a subliminal level, for example: the level 16 intro sound file when played backwards voices out a message..and the hidden messages on the auto-run splash screen..just an interesting thought.

I've found out how this Diablo Easter Egg works. All of you seem to see different words, and I know why. Some of you with the new version will probably see the "...Rocks" phrase. The ones with the old version will see the "Natalie...". If the people with the new version want to see the "Natalie..." one, right-click your CD-ROM Drive and click "open". Double-click the "Autorun" program. Do the "print screen" and whatever and you'll find the "Natalie" thing.

I find it easier to use the 'pick colour' option in paint. This tool lets you pick a colour in the image and select it as your main colour. Do this in a black area, switch to the eraser, and hold the right mouse button down as you drag it around the horns. It may take a few tries to pick a colour (version of black) that works, but once you get it it makes it much easier to see them. (If you want to make it blue, just right click a blue colour in the colour box.)

You know, the "Buy War2" is probably referring to Warcraft 2, another game made by Blizzard, and just trying to get people to buy their stuff.
