If I use acetone to get rid of all of a foil but the text box and name, then use the process with the clear paper to make an alternate art card/proxy, since the original text box and name is still there would the card be tournament legal?

I dont think so

Okay didn't read all that.

That would not be legal.

Official DCI sanctioned events don't allow proxies, so for the places that do, I think it is up to them.  I don't know much about proxies myself, but here's what wiki has to say:

I think it'd still be legal because the text box and name are still there, that's what I've been told anyway

Okay so if I had an artist (for argument's sake, not the original artist) alter the set on a card is it still tourney legal?

I feel like it would be, I'm gonna play some Tuesday night and I'll ask my shopkeeper
