Here's the script minus the on adding folder items line :
set thePath to (path to desktop as string) & "pictureTest:"
set theFileList to list folder thePath without invisibles
repeat with thisFile in theFileList
set thisFilePath to (thePath as string) & thisFile as alias
tell application "Adobe Photoshop CS"
open thisFilePath
end tell
end repeat
