How to show popup on Emacs?

I intend to change certain features/functions in Emacs. I was wondering whether there is any feature in Emacs to popup a windows to show a warning message? Also, I would appreciate any alternative ideas if this feature is not available.

Cheers all.

You might want to look at the following. These are the popups that autocomplete uses.

You might also want to M-x apropos RET ^x- to find out about other GUI features emacs supports.

If you want something more sophisticated, you have to use/write separte programs.
Emacs GUI support is limited, but it interacts quite well with other processes.
