Using test.php - which calls phpinfo(), we are getting a hacker's face in place of the usual PHP logo.  Did you guys really mean to do this??

That confused me as well - I figured it was an April Fool's thing but I couldn't work out how it was done (the image is served up by the web server rather than being hosted anywhere on php.net). It turns out it's an easter egg built in to PHP - if the server date is April 1st the alternative logo is used. You can see it on other days of the year by tagging this on to your PHPinfo page URL:

The guy in the picture is Thies (see the alt tag) - one of the core PHP developers.
