Hi,

Was going to download the free templates from Course when I went to click on link to download templates.. got an unsafe link warning.... ????

Hello @Big Allan, and welcome to the forums.

What Course? Is this one of the various courses listed under Tutorials? As @StudioJason says, you need to contact the course author.

I was rather confused by your Title. Did 'AI' refer to  'Artificial Intelligence' or to 'Adobe Illusrator'. It helps to give a meaningful title to your post, possibly something like 'Course templates are unsafe'.

Many new members get confused by this.

The topic title is actually ‘Al’ (a diminutive of ‘Allan’) but something like your suggested meaningful title would indeed be helpful.

I had guessed that. In the font used a capital 'I' looks like a lower case 'l'.

It’s well nigh impossible to see at normal size, but the ell is very slightly taller than cap height.

"Unsafe" often only means  that the linked webside still uses "http", not "https". That is not good, because it is not an encrypted connection, but it mustn't mean that it is a bad or infected webside. For example, I often get this warning when I visit the german GIMP-Forum, which also still uses http.

Reminds me of the time I had a Serial number needing to be entered and the font chosen by the software company for the serial number had the One, the Lowercase Ell and the Uppercase Eye all look the same, and of course the Zero and the Uppercase Oh looked similar too.

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.4 
Affinity Designer 2.4.1 | Affinity Photo 2.4.1 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.1 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

It is sometimes somehow similar to me with 0 and O. Sometimes awkward in case of financial transactions.
