It is a solution to the problem:

   Place multiple images on one way the Correct Wayᵀᴹ when using ox-latex.

They can be removed.

The simplest way is special blocks.

Nonetheless, if you feel strongly about tables you could do it like this¹:

     #+latex_header: \def\imgtop#1{\vtop{\null\hbox{#1}}}
     #+macro: imgtop @@latex:\imgtop{@@ $1 @@latex:}@@

     #+attr_latex: :booktabs nil
     | <c>                             | <c>                             |
     | {{{imgtop([[file:img1.png]])}}} | {{{imgtop([[file:img2.png]])}}} |

Hope it helps,
Rasmus
