Agreed, it's all in the framing. She knows that you want her to use the potty. Eliminate that from the equation.
As "minicpst" says, the best message that you can give is, "when you're big, you'll know how to use the potty". If grandma/friends ask how she's doing, jump in and say, Oh, we're waiting until she's bigger... then she'll know how to use the potty"
Your daughter will over hear all of this, and you know what she'll think? What's that sucka' saying' bout me?! I don't KNOW how to use the potty. I'll show her!!!
I also recommend the kids book by Dr. Sears:

PIck up several books from the library if you can and read them regularly.
She is not at all "old" for being in diapers. I know tons of families who struggled through age 3. It's just annoying for the parents b/c it seems like they should be able to use the toilet. And, they can - whey they think that they are deciding to do it themselves.
