Forced SSL (https)

I'm currently forcing SSL protocol for all page loads on BCP. This is an industry best practice, but it is not without some headaches. You may see some browser messages that say "this page was loaded securely but some items are insecure" or something to that effect. It's not a serious security issue, it's just the browser warning you that some images (like Shortfield.com's images) are loaded over regular http, which as the potential (very remote chance) to be intercepted on an unsecured network.

Most pages will give this warning, especially the forum, because we all use different image hosts for our photos, and most do not use https.

Anyway, just a heads up. If your browser warns, it's not a big deal. I just want to make sure your logins and passwords are being secured when they're submitted.
