Talking to myself AKA Using Images to determine next step?

Hi Folks, I'd like to add the ability (assuming it exists) to use pop-up dialogues (as images?) that may be presented during a certain stage of my script to determine the next course of action.

If the program is not found to be running then I want to simply continue on with my script. Basically I want to ...
