I noticed while digging through some random junk that the picture for all Shivan Oasis from 8th Ed, Planechase, and DD: PvC have had their artwork cropped relative to the Invasion picture. This is because the Invasion artwork has the artist signature "Alexander 2000" on it, and I was curious what other cards people can think of that have had slight alterations of their artwork done from one set to another.

Actually in all languages except English--or should I say English is the odd ball. Makes a real nice binder page though with the English one in the middle surrounded by the other 8.magicmisprints wrote:Jamuraan Lion from Visions was differently cropped in ... Korean, I think it was? Maybe Japanese.

Re: Cards that have had their art slightly altered
This is endless, or at lease almost with the change of borders. Plus many of the oriental "alternate art" were just digitally altered artwork--without the artist even being involved. I showed a Chinese Canopy Spider to Chris Rush one time where the skulls had been changed to rocks. He was unaware that it had ever been changed (and a little put out about it).berkumps wrote:I noticed while digging through some random junk that the picture for all Shivan Oasis from 8th Ed, Planechase, and DD: PvC have had their artwork cropped relative to the Invasion picture.

Incongruently, one of the reasons given by WotC for the border change was to provide more picture on the card. For most earlier cards this translated into "make the picture bigger" rather than "expand the art".
More to your specific question though would be Skulking Ghost from Mirage where one picture is both framed differently and the color was different.
