     I think you may have placed your Impress template in the wrong
folder even though it is visible.
     Open LO. Use Tools > Options > LibreOffice > Paths to find the
correct path for yourfor templates that should only be visible in LO for
the computer where L templates. Click Templates to highlight it, and
then click the Edit button. The top path is where your templates should
be placed for all the computers to see. The bottom path is the one you
noticed will not do what you want.
     For my installation of LO 3.4.5, the correct path for what you
would want is
            libreoffice3.4/basis3.4/share/template/common.
For your computer setup, there should only be one folder in the common
folder: layout. 
      You could place your Impress template in the layout folder inside
the common folder. It would appear in the Presentations Backgrounds
folder.
     My suggestion: create two folders in the common folder: writer, and
Impress. Place the writer template in the writer folder and the Impress
template in the impress folder. Then when you have the Templates and
Documents - Templates dialog open, you will see several folders listed
including My Templates, writer, and Impress. Inside the writer folder
will be your writer template; inside the impress folder will be your
impress template.d
