This is not a BBEdit problem. If you run "Check Links" on pages with the //cdn links, you will note that BBEdit tells you those images cannot be found. Frankly, I can't for the life of me imagine why you would want to manage your assets this way. If the page points to the CDN version, then so should your preview. Otherwise, you could have an image on your local machine but not on the CDN, it would preview fine locally but the image would not appear in the published site. Wish you'd been more clear in the beginning; that's why I asked for clarification.
