Can anyone point me toward a list of Rider-Waite(-Smith) decks that are very similar to the original? Recolored decks, redrawn-but-really-stinkin' close decks, that sort of thing. Thanks!

Some of the re-colored RWS deck are
The Golden Waite
Albano Waite
And my favorite- The Universal Waite!
There's also the Diamond Tarot- very pretty but small image size
The out of print Hoi Polloi
And it seems like the Tarot Sutra was a mostly a recolored Waite, though I'd been looking at bunches of decks at that time, and maybe confused on that one.
Most of the decks can be seen here on Aeclectic or on the Wicce site (among other places!)
I'm sure there are other decks, too! :)

The Hanson Roberts, Morgan Greer and Robin Wood are Rider Waite clones, the cards use the same kind of symbolism, it would depend on what you want a re-coloured Rider Waite like the Universal or one of the colour versions of R/W (there are about 3 different colour versions lol) or just a clone deck - :)

I think the coloring is a bit too cold. I'm more into the Hanson-Roberts/Universal Waite-style. These colors are so soft and pleasant! :)

Spiral is a Rider Waite clone in most regards
So is the Pocketable Tarot, but you wont find it lol
Also the Universal Tarots by Lo Scarabo and the Sharman-Caseli deck are pretty much Rider Waite clones (you can see Sharman-Caseli at this thread
http://www.tarotforum.net/showthread.php?s=&threadid=3542 )
My favorite clone isnt pulished unfortuately its called the Aquatic Tarot, you can see it at
