Maybe the text could be overlayed or painted above a common image
(keeping also in mind RTL languages).
I think this is where SVG starts looking good. Is there any
infrastructure available to localize SVG? A gettext kind of thing, only
store the diff between languages? And SVG itself is potentially much
smaller than a bitmap.
We could just disable the slideshow entirely for languages we haven't
translated it to. Another idea is to enable it only if a network is
available. Stream the slideshow content off a Fedora server...
Maybe embed a "slide" into each RPM itself. The slideshow would then
automagically adapt itself to what you're actually installing... We're
already wanting a pretty per-package icon to display in GUI tools, this
would be an extension of that idea...
