If you're on a roll, go for it.  Makes up for the times when creatively nothing
seems to 'come'.  And I always take the attitude that there is more to the
'contest' than the 'contest'.  It is a forum for showing and getting reactions
that is a record of sorts. As far as voting goes, I find I am personally able to
treat each of multiple entries as an image in its own right.  And wouldn't
completing two entries and having them both place in say, the top ten, be a
significant vote of approval?

I believe I  have noticed, looking back through previous rounds, that some of
the contest's greatest  luminaries have sometimes made multiple entries.

But an ancilliary question comes to mind: what if two or more images are meant
to be complementary, each taking its meaning from the other?  This might give me
a problem when voting.  But what if two files were asked to be treated a single
entry?  Do the rules specifically preclude this?
