I've seen this other places but haven't seen this mentioned here:
The rune from the splash isn't on this one...
This could mean that the runes on Frostmourne aren't really "official" and its just a coincidence that it happens to look like nef/sheal which are an established part of Diablo
GUYS !!!!!!!!!!!!!! guys!!!
I remember the mother-f*ckin purple dude!!! I've been reading through the whole thread, guessing what it might be and suddenly i remembered it !! I saw it a year or more ago =) IT IS DIABLO and he is trying to GET WARMED !! There is a small campfire in front of him and D is freezeing and trying to WARM HIS HANDS with that fire!! He's got a purple cloth with fur on his back. That's 100%. The art is freeky and may be there was something else whitten on it. But the fire and freezing Diablo is a 100% match.
GOD I want it to be D3....
This guy is exactly right. Yes there is another pic like it that someone else linked to but the purple diablo is also wearing a coat and warming his hands by a fire. The title of it was Hell Freezes Over. I used to have it on my Old PC that I just sold a few months ago
So here's what's going to happen:
There will be 5 runes shown up until friday. On saturday the five runes are going to light up (like seals in the Chaos Sanctuary) and Ice will shatter, revealing a Diablo 3 splash. Clicking on it will take you to Diablo3.com which will host the teaser trailer and a few images, much like starcraft2.com last year.
As much as I want this to be Diablo III and I want that to be a Shael rune on the left - though undoubtedly that is a Hel Rune... my concern comes with this image:
Behold the top rune on the Lich King's Sword. The left rune looks far more like that than a Shael. I believe Blizz may just be recycling rune symbols to get our hopes up.

On blizzards website under job postings they are looking for jobs for a top secret project. All job posting for Star craft II and WOW have their symbols next to the posting. In the description for the top secert job opening they refer to the development of Diablo I and Diablo II to discribe the type of environment they would need to develop. I am just saying that they are trying to get the personel together for Diablo 3.
The whole page where this picture supposed to be is missing. lol
I mean the 111th - other "?"-thumbnailed pics still are on blizzard server in hi-res. But ss111.jpg isn't, no thumbnail either.
Also 111 looks like III.

That's why you need me.... Need someone to punish you for your sins.
hey check this out, i think the guy figured it out:
"Hey, I just read a nice theory about those runes
What if the first one was actually Nef (it's a bit a hard to see, but I think it might actually be)
Then you'll get from the rune order on bnet
D Nef
I Ort
A El
B Eld
L Sol O Hel"

Diablo 3 is graphically and artistically great, there needs to be variety in the game, instead of only plain and dark areas!
+Wouldn't it be better and more interesting if from a sunny beautiful day, mist starts covering the screen, rain starts falling, thunders and lightning striking and it starts to darken, instead of constant dark!?
That rune yesterday resembles the one from Sword, for sure!!! The animated gif posted, has definitely proven that! Shael rune is similar, though. Or maybe another D2 rune...
However, that still doesn't mean it's WOTLK!
What about Today's rune?
It's 100% Hal, and no symbol from WOTLK even similar to it at all!
Read my score Tally, I still say it looks BETTER for diablo 3 than WOTLK at this point, with everything considered!

Wait and see. I guarantee that I am right.
...its starting to look good imo...
NOT 50-50, READ MY tally
It's Diablo 3 by 3 more points than WOTLK!
If you want to add the purple Diablo, and Hydra, then Diablo 3's chances are higher than WOTLK by WHOLE a lot!

What?
You don't think 'Hell has Frozen over" & "Ice melting" could be the meaning of the images?
READ my Scores Tally!, these images makes just as much sense for Diablo 3, as it's for WOTLK.... if not more!
i have no doubt that this is a frostmourn rune but todays rune is a hel rune 100%... idk wat to think... just w8 till wwi

That was for a patch release that dedicated Diablo fans like myself thought was never going to come. You can see it here:

There is absolutely no resemblance.
It's the decisions you make when you have no time to make them that define who you are.
