Hi @Dalai Felinto (dfelinto) I am almost new developer around here, I would like to work on this, can we ourselves select new images for the installer or is there someone I should ask ?

Hi @Himanshi Kalra (calra), for the images themselves, @Pablo Vazquez (pablovazquez) will look at it, you can poke him on blender.chat to see if he needs any help though.

Hi @Dalai Felinto (dfelinto) is this issue still open, I would like to take it as my first issue, should I try to reach out to @Pablo Vazquez (pablovazquez) to get the new image ?

Did Blender ship 3.3.1 with a pumpkin model preloaded? I received a version
with a model of a pumpkin head preloaded. Files have been deleted
and created with a 1969 modified date. I thought at first that this was
someone's idea of a joke - and Blender is the only program I use very much, and
I installed the latest LTS version, thinking it might be an upgrade from 2.83 for a
long term project.

Or was the pumpkin model some other agent's idea of a way to interfere?

I'd hate to think that this is Blender's bug, but my system changes are
severe. I'm trying to rule out the latest install.

We never shipped a pumpkin, it's advisable to only install official blender.org releases , also a ticket about the artwork in our installer is hardly the place to discuss this.

As I thought - I've been hacked. I installed directly from a Blender site.

The change must have occured somewhere in between.

Very spooky, and not fun at all having a broken system.

Not Blender's fault then.

But the errors remain. Sorry for posting here - but my system is now in chaos...

Thanks for your quick response. Knowing where to look means something to me.
