I know this one begs a "Why would you want to do that?" however I have to ask: If my images are on a HTTPS web server, will I get a mixed content or other errors displaying the images if they are served up in a HTTP page? 

I have had little to no luck finding an answer to this question amongst all the mixed content questions that are usually generated by HTTPS pages with HTTP content.

Thanks in advance!

Mixed content is about embedding images retrieved via an open HTTP link on a secure page. Firefox won't block such images with the default settings, but adds a warning badge (exclamation mark) to the padlock.

There are no such security issues with the opposite and there shouldn't be any problems with embedding secure images (HTTPS link) on an open HTTP page, although Firefox can complain about other issues on an open page when a login form is detected.

You can always check the Web Console for more detail.
