It sounds like you are asking to make a CD/DVD which is loaded
as a program when you insert it into the drive.  If so, I offer
you the following, one of my hundreds of "randomly" inserted
email tag lines.

  Autoexecuting email or CDs is like having sex with everyone you
  meet.  It spreads disease. --- A.B.

No OS which wants to claim any level of security does this.

As an alternative, it is reasonable to run a program (that is
already on your system) when it sees pictures on your CDROM.
Since I don't do that, I will leave it to others to identify
if such a thing exists.
