The point was raised that having a modified picture would have given
away the fact that Doc survives in the new future.  I don't see how
this follows.  Considering that any changes in the future were caused by
Marty's presence and influence in the past, whether Doc survives or
not is irrelevant.  Besides, the picture only shows Marty and his
brother and sister and if changed, would only prove Doc's theory
that Marty's shinanigans during his week-long stay had rippled
into the future.  I guess I generally suscribe to the single timeline
view of history although it doesn't explain how Marty can see himself
upon his return.
