Quick and dirty option:

If you make a package with a command step of "\\PathToFile\Filename.jpg" and run as "Logged on User", it would open the specified file in whatever program is associated with that file type. (Same as if they double-clicked it themselves)

Should work with other file types too.

But unless the contents of the file are self explanatory or they were expecting it, I'd guess about half my users would notice it, ignore it, wonder why that opened, and close it immediately.
