Can someone upload an image of how a ball python's cage should properly be setup. Also, I was told that it was ok to house two pythons in the same enclosure, is this true?

I would not suggest housing two together. Ball pythons do best when kept in individual enclosures.

I have some pics in my profile gallery of my setups. Im more of a naturalistic keeper.
As for housing them together. It is usually not suggested. Their are a few issues it can create. If one snake gets sick you may not know which it was or one could infect the other. It can also create issues if you have a boy and girl who decide to have babies and your not ready. That creates physical stress on both snakes that has no reason if your not trying to breed.
Also to properly keep two snakes in the same cage your going to need enough room to have several hides, a few warm and a few cool. This will allow them to each have the kind of hide they desire without having to fight over one warm and one cool.
