It depends how you want to control the images.  It sounds like you don't want 
to use the logo functionality itself, but want to use a block in the "header" 
region, or multiple blocks.  

For details beyond that, we'd need to know your business logic needs.  (Can 
the images be changed separately, is there any randomization, etc.)

If the images are strictly static design elements, then you could get away 
with putting img tags directly into the template file iff you are smart and 
use dynamic pathing rather than hard coding sites/default/yourtheme.  (Use 
$directory instead, which is dynamic and portable and cleaner.)

"If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of 
exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an idea, 
which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps it to 
himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the possession 
of every one, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it."  -- Thomas
