I think yours is authentic. I got one from Joey Votto a couple months ago and I was worried about its authenticity because when I looked it up on Google Images there wasn't anything that looked similar. I think he just changed his autograph because mine is the same as yours. I used a 2010 Upper Deck card but I don't send them anymore because every one I have gotten back has been smeared like this one. I used baby powder on it. I like the 2011 Topps cards the best and that's mostly what I send now.

Here's mine:

It's not an ap. I just got him a few days ago and theyre different

Based on recent discussions & posting of images and an A/B against a card I got his rookie year, look like I go a card that is either his new signature, the clubhouse kid, or autopen. Either way, I think it is still nice he returns something, a pre-print or request for donation. I sent two cards on 7/3/12 and got both cards back, but only one signed yesterday 7/18/12. I sent to him at the c/o Reds at Great American Ballpark in the database. Here is a scan for comparison purposes:
