FWIW, this bug only seems to happen with non-square images.  The second
slide in the slideshow, for Firefox, uses a square PNG file -- and it
doesn't crash if you drag it.  The first slide, on the other hand
("welcome" and "f-spot") use rectangular images (taller than they are
wide), and they crash.

Through some trial and error, I've found that I can make the first slide
fine by editing its underlying PNG image in Gimp to make it square.
Absolute size doesn't seem to matter -- 100x100 is fine, 237x237 is
fine, but 100x237 up to 235x237 will crash.)

Also, FWIW -- evand has checked in the fix for bug 448703, so I assume
this bug will be worked around in the next version of ubiquity-
slideshow-ubuntu.  For the purposes of testing this bug here, use a
version of ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu <= 0.8, the current version.
