 > All I am saying is the upload URL can be HTTPS but if the normal site
 browsing is HTTP, there is no need to default the image delivery to HTTPS.

 Your site is either purely https or purely http. Even if you think it is
 half and half, it isn't. If you use http mixed with https, you've broken
 the http strict transport security, thus making it easier for hackers to
 get information transmitted over https. My company, Planet Zuda has a
 podcast about it if you want to listen to it.
