You can retrieve archived versions of some dead sites (to some extent or another) by entering the links on the page here: http://wayback.archive.org/web/
Understandably it is very hit or miss as to how much content if any had been archived. But there are some old gems to be found this way for sure. If it comes up with some garbage page, make sure that you look back for older archived versions from 5 or 10 years ago because sometimes they are still there.
There is a lot of stuff floating around out there if you know what to search for. Any time I search for old Diablo stuff, my choice of keywords inevitably leads to Google finding an old forum post by me. Sometimes I cringe at the things I thought were funny 12 years ago. The strat scene was not great for artwork or fan fiction though.
Claudio had a thing for the work of Luis Royo, who had a thing for drawing pretty ladies in fantasy settings wearing not very much clothing. http://web.archive.org/web/2006071223000...is_roy.htm
