I thought the rules were two pictures...? I've got more to post if that's allowed.

Once the voting starts then you can post more pics, but your official entry can only have 2 pics. I just got finished sending a PM to him.
 
Re: Official May 2011 ROTM submission thread

Ok, that's all 5 for sure. Voting will start sometime this weekend when I have time to open the poll.

Thanks.
