API access to photos via https

When we try to load a photo directly via a secure link via https, we get an error that the security certificate is registered to akamai.net.

For some uses with rare browsers such as IE 10, this blocks the images completely.

Is there a way to load images that are linked via the API via https?

Thanks,

    The upload end point via the API does not require https,

    http://api.smugmug.com/services/api/?method=upload

    And adding the S where it isn't needed can result in errors and unavailable pages.

    If you need anything else, please let us know.

    The goal is to download the photos on a site where some of the other content requires https. The new browsers seem to require all content to be https.

    https://warner.smugmug.com/photos/i-BnKXBTw/0/L/i-BnKXBTw-L.jpg

    This give an error: "You attempted to reach warner.smugmug.com, but instead you actually reached a server identifying itself as a248.e.akamai.net. This may be caused by a misconfiguration on the server or by something more serious. An attacker on your network could be trying to get you to visit a fake (and potentially harmful) version of warner.smugmug.com."

    Thanks,
