If you’re using Paperclip or CarrierWave, just add two separate file
attributes to your base model, following the usual instructions for
either. If you want to be able to attach N number of files of any
format to a base model, consider the nested_form Gem by Ryan B.,
and be sure to watch his Railscast on “Complex Forms 1 & 2” to make
sure you grasp what the gem is making for you.

Assuming you are using Paperclip, and you have a Foo model, and you
have read the ReadMe on the Paperclip GitHub page, you would do this:
rails generate paperclip Foo image_one
rails generate paperclip Foo image_two
rake db:migrate
Now you have the proper bits in your database. If you are using
attr_accessible in your model (please say yes) then you have to
add :image_one, :image_two, to the beginning of the list of accessible
attributes.
Add
has_attached_file :image_one, :styles => {}
has_attached_file :image_two, :styles => {}
to your model.
In your view’s form_for call, add :html => { :multipart => true }
before the do, so it looks like this:
<%= form_for @foo, :html => { :multipart => true } do |f| %>
In your form body, add a field for each image:
<%= f.file_field :image_one %>
<%= f.file_field :image_two %>
And you’re done. Files will upload to your public/system/foos/
image_[one|two]/original/ folder, off the top of my head. You can
configure EVERYTHING, just read the Wiki.
