Hi Ben

Just a suggestion…. and wanted to alert you to the fact that when using HTTPS or SSL with site, any images uploaded into the theme options tend to break the https – so you get the annoying “this page displayed insecure content”.

On my site I have uploaded a custom background and also a favicon and both of these seem to be causing the issue.

To get around this, I have removed these images from the theme options panel and instead directly added them to the theme CSS file (and the header file for the favicon) using the following…. but I just wanted to request that if possible, you could modify the options panel to remove the http part and then the browser will automatically assign the http or https according to whether the page is a secure one or not.

body {
background: url("//mydomain.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/custom-background.jpg") no-repeat scroll center top !important;
}
