Hello, the banner for our server has not been working, we originally linked via Imgur and now used our own domain both of which are https and no joy. Any help appreciated!

It looks like your web host is not allowing hot linking. Maybe it's a setting somewhere in your control panel.

What website that hosts images would you recommend? Cause I have never had an issue before, so weird. Imgur also doesn't work.

So just for anyone else trying, flickr works for some reason.

Normally it should work on most web hosting plans, but I guess yours blocks hot linking. I'm surprised imgur does not work, I just tested it and it works. Make sure that you use the url to the image file directly though, and not just the page that shows the image.
Been meaning to revamp the site though, and add functionality to upload the image directly. Just been getting sidetracked with other stuff.
