Thanks for the suggestion. The banners do not currently support HTTPS, but may in the future.
I am retired from GameTracker after 11 years and will not be responsive for support requests.

I'm working on the same thing right now. I reckon it's going to come down to writing a script and dumping it on cron to pull the image every minute and serve it from the https site directly. Kind of a bummer :/

as root or whatever:

crontab -e
# add the following line
*/1 * * * * wget -P <Web Server Image Store> -O <Short Name>.png <Banner Link> && chown www-data <Web Server Image Store>/<Short Name>.png
# fill in the blanks, then link to https://<Hostname>/<Image Link>.png

Hopefully you're running on nix and this makes sense
