Re: Use own hosted image for header/bg
I talked to an admin about this and he sites security as a big reason for not allowing outside URLs. For example, someone could have the "image" point to a script that sets a cookie on the user's computer. It's just safer for FFR and everyone on it to have the site have full control over what is shown.
