an array-less way to do it 

pictures[]
counter = 0

5.times do
    puts "<tr>"
    5.times do
       if ( pictures[ counter ] ) exists
          puts "<td>" + image code + "</td>"
       else
          puts "<td></td>"
       end
       counter ++
    end
    puts "</tr>"
end

I think that is almost legal ruby code.  I'm new to ruby, so I don't
know exactly.  There is probably an even better way of doing this. 
I'm really gray on ruby array handling
