Mike, pm Pat on Teams. The link to your gallery on your Winter Sunset wall (beautiful, btw) works for me on Firefox and Brave. I pm'd Pat for you.

Why would Stardock be using a link that isn't "https://" for anything?

In https://, the s means a Secure and Safe connection.

My best guess is that the galleris have been like that since before secure connections were the norm, and not been updated.

That is because the galleries section hasn't been updated for many, many years (my guess) and maybe your browser's security settings or something related won't allow you to go to an "unsecure" site. This link should take you to your gallery : http://teddybearcholla.wincustomize.com/skins.aspx

Nothing on SD nor WC is https...but they actually should be. The lack of https triggers Chrome and other browsers to give warnings re the security of the site.

Yes by switching the Security Settings from Secure to Non Secure allows it to work again

in Chrome and Edge and Firefox and it already was working in Brave , so that's the best fix for now.

This  only started acting up for me about a month ago so I don't know  what changed to

make it happen Windows Updates ? , Now  it's time to the latest Windows update so hope it stays working .

Maybe Pat will be able to fix the basic problem whatever it is.

Your gallery is working fine in my browser: Firefox 121.0.1(64-bit) for Windows. I used that link you provided, and was able to download the wallpaper just fine.

Edit: That first link: https://azdude.wincustomize.com/skins.aspx does not work, and I also got the dreaded HTTP Error 404 message. But I'm still able to download any of your skins from the galleries.

Try this:

If you go to the http:// site and the page doesn't load, click somewhere in the page and type in thisisunsafe and hit enter. It may go then....

Most Browsers started marking HTTP websites as unsecure in 2018. Now, most are enforcing it.

It could be as simple as the SSL/TLS certificate for that server being expired, and just needs to be renewed.

That will be the cause....the solution may be an issue due to all the site interlinking.

Entertainingly....the Admin site is called '2007' ....so it's older than my underpants....

That's correct...the knickers part.   

Unfortunately, the site is too antediluvian to support https, so use Brave or Firefox, or edit out the 's' by hand.
