Unsecure conncection when viewing content with images? [SOLVED]

Greetings,

I'm wondering why certain threads/posts/topics/whatever which contain images cause firefox to report an insecure connection (due to the images). What's so insecure about the images? Why would firefox complain about that for an otherwise encrypted website? I'm not concerned about it, I'm just wondering why that occurs. It seems a bit odd to me.

I am diagnosed with bipolar disorder. As it turns out, what I thought was my greatest weakness is now my greatest strength.

Everyday, I make a conscious choice to overcome my challenges and my problems. It's not easy, but its better than the alternative...

It's a mixed content warning. Those images are loaded from 3rd party domains which aren't serving over https.
