How do I use systemd to automatically run a slideshow automatically at startup? I am using Gnome on Fedora 20. eog works well, but I cannot get it to successfully run at startup.

You do not use systemd for this. See my earlier answer on why. eog is not a system service; it is a desktop program that runs inside the login session, and the correct method to start it is by creating a *.desktop file in the ~/.config/autostart directory:

[Desktop Entry]
Name=Slide show
Type=Application
Exec=eog --slide-show ~/Pictures
