Steemit Beginner Tips : Adding a Picture without having to worry about HTTPS

Hello to the Steemit Community,

I hope your having a great time browsing through Steemit because I am loving every second of it , there is so much great quality content being created on this platform that I cant stop reading. Steemit is great because people generally try to create some sort of content that should be interesting enough to capture the attention of other community members. This makes you wanna join the community where you get involved by just doing what most of us do on the internet , which is generally go on FACEBOOK !! to LIKE ! LIKE ! and POST ! if not your most likely on 9GAG , 4 CHAN , Reddit and bunch of other random sites clicking and browsing through random stuff.

Now you basically ''VOTE'' , whereby you show appreciation to a community post and you can upload content yourself to get some appreciation. This makes you sign up and want to ''Submit a Story'' , at first you'll have no problem because Steemit is userfriendly and has a clean interface that makes it easy for even beginners to create some content. You'll be able to edit the basics fonts , however when you decide to add a photo , you realized it requested for only
'' HTTPS '' images ? at this point if your not aware of this term

Its stands for Hyper Text Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) which is the secure version of HTTP, the protocol over which data is sent between your browser and the website that you are connected to. The 'S' at the end of HTTPS stands for 'Secure'. It means all communications between your browser and the website are encrypted.

So now you end up searching for images that have the standard HTTPS , most likely using Google with little result.
Well i hope this reaches many , because it took me some time to get around this problem ,

Please feel to use this wonderful site

http://httpsimage.com/

Wondering what that link is ?

HttpsImage.com is a free secure image hosting service, designed for hosting images that need to be served using the HTTPS (SSL) protocol. This is useful for displaying images on secure payment pages such as paypal.
If you don't have a security certificate for your own site, then if you try to host an image from your website on a HTTPS (secure) web-page, then the end-user will see a security warning. This can put end users off making a purchase, and without branding on the payment page, then you could also confuse users.
Simply upload your image to this website, and we will give you a secure url that you can use to embed the image into the HTTPS webpage.

So there you have it , lets hope this saves people time and allows everyone to add any picture they want on to Steemit Post !
