Any images that use HTTPS in their URL do not show in the BOINC forums. The image URL needs HTTP at the moment to work correctly.

I do believe that is a browser setting.

 

For instance, Internet Explorer has two different advanced settings dealing with warning/blocking mixed protocol content.

I'm not sure it's as simple as that. Trying a few random image urls directly in my browser (Chrome) address bar, some rendered differently when accessed via HTTPS - e.g. protobucket switched to an html frame. But even when I found an image which rendered normally in https, and pasted the url into a message board post at a project I was accessing via https, it still just displayed the 'broken image link' icon.
