Just to supplement a bit the answer of David,
the notebook with a banner may be comfortably created from an external notebook. To achieve this, one can copy the code below
to any notebook and execute it. This will create a new slide-show-notebook with nothing, but a banner. The latter consists
in this example of a combination of a table and a picture. Making a combination of other items seems to be straightforward.
(* This defines a picture *)
rose = Import["ExampleData/rose.gif"];
(* This defines a table *)
tbl = Grid[{
{Style["This is a first term"],
Style["This is a second term"]}, {Style["This is a third term"],
Style["This is a fourth term"]}
}, Dividers -> Directive[Black, Thickness[2]],
ItemSize -> {15, 2}];
(* This defines a notebook to be created *)
nb1 = CreateDocument[];
(* This opens a notebook with the banner consisting of a table and a
picture *)
SetOptions[nb1,
DockedCells -> {FEPrivate`FrontEndResource["FEExpressions",
"SlideshowToolbar"],
First[ToBoxes[
TextCell[Row[{tbl, rose}], "Text", TextAlignment -> Right]]]}]
David, thank you for the answer. Alexei

Ah, so many questions... :-)
You only have to execute this once, then you can remove the command
from your presentation and save it. The docked cell will then be a
part of your notebook (in its options settings).
Another way to do this is to modify the stylesheet for the notebook in
question. I don't have time at the moment to write up that code (to
do it automatically) and debug it. Alas, the day job and mortgage
payments beckon...
I hope that this helps. If I misunderstood the question, let me know
via direct email and I will find an answer for you and then post it to
the group.
