You need to navigate to the "Full Site" to use the program like all members. Then you can upload files.
When you learn to do that you will then be able to participate in uploading your guess questions on this and similar sites.
It's not difficult and everyone here does it.

The web version full site isnt very easy to use on a mobile device.
Id put to the owners that
https://www.phpbb.com/
Which is a free forum software is a much better option and has a useable full site and mobile version.
Id be interested to understand why they chose not to use it.

Maybe the Webmaster could help you out there.
In the meantime, I'm waiting for the next PICK THIS PLACE post.
As a last thought, zoom in on your mobile screen and you will be able to easily navigate and undertake all the desired actions.

Biggerboat, your right it is bigger than sweetheart.
This is allegedly the biggest croc shot ever, and certainly in Australia. Interestingly, it was killed by a lady, and was nicknamed the Savannah King I believe.
I didnt put more clues for the other picture as there was no guess, comment or response for 6 days. A guess and an attempt might have spurred me to offer something else up, although Marree offers little in clues.

Krys the Savannah King is a famous life-sized replica of a massive sal****er crocodile, claimed to be the largest ever caught, measuring 8.63 meters (28 feet 4 inches) and weighing over two tons. It was reportedly shot in July 1957 by Krystina Pawlowski, a Polish-born hunter, on the MacArthur Bank of the Norman River in Normanton, Queensland, Australia. The statue, located in L E W Henry Park on Normantons main street, is a major tourist attraction and holds a place in the Guinness Book of World Records for the largest crocodile captured in modern times.
However, theres debate about the storys authenticity. The only evidence, photographs taken by the Pawlowskis, was lost in the 1974 floods, and some sources suggest the photo used to support the claim dates to 1914 from the Roper River, using forced perspective to exaggerate size. Critics argue the crocodiles size may be overstated, with estimates suggesting it could be in the low 20s rather than 28 feet. Experts like Grahame Webb lend some credibility to the story, but others, like the well-documented cases of crocodiles like Lolong, have more tangible proof (skulls, skins, official measurements). Krystina later regretted the kill and became a conservationist, running a crocodile farm with her husband Ron in Karumba.
The replica remains a striking reminder of the regions crocodile-filled waters and a nod to outback folklore, whether fully factual or partly myth.

Hint:
In 1974, Hugh Sawrey, well known stockman and outback artist, enlisted supporters for his dream for a memorial to the explorers, overlanders, pioneers and settlers of remote Australia.

Hugh Sawrey, the renowned Australian artist and stockman who spearheaded the creation of the Australian Stockmans Hall of Fame in Longreach, Queensland, in 1974.
Hugh David Sawrey (19191999), a self-taught artist born in Forest Glen, Queensland, was deeply connected to the Australian outback through his work as a drover and jackeroo. In 1974, inspired by his experiences and a desire to preserve the legacy of Australias rural pioneers, he founded and became the driving force behind the Australian Stockmans Hall of Fame and Outback Heritage Centre in Longreach. This memorial was envisioned as a tribute to the explorers, overlanders, pioneers, and settlers who shaped remote Australia, particularly those reliant on the horse in the pastoral industry. Sawrey registered the name in December 1974 with the Department of Corporate Affairs in Brisbane and provided initial funding by auctioning his painting The Dugandan Pub. He enlisted notable supporters, including the legendary R.M. Williams, to bring this vision to life. The museum, constructed with timber, stone, and corrugated iron to reflect the outbacks rugged character, was completed in 1987 and officially opened by Queen Elizabeth II on April 29, 1988. It stands as a lasting tribute to the unsung heroes of Australias outback, celebrating their courage, mateship, and contributions.
Sawreys art, often depicting outback life, cattle musters, and stockmen, complemented this mission. His paintings, like The Plainsman and His Wife (1983), were used to raise funds through lithographs for the Halls development. His commitment to preserving Australias outback heritage also earned him a CBE in 1989 for services to the arts.

The abandoned uranium mine at Mary Kathleen in QLD.
A great free camp in the nearby abandoned town of the same name.

Yes, it is the abandoned uranium mine at Mary Kathleen near Cloncurry Qld.

Ok. Heres a hint. Its a major road junction, and the train doesnt run anymore.

A change of scenery from Marree to where? Where do we find a statue of this oversized handbag?
