I am not sure if this is the right venue for my problem. I am a drupal beginner and presently at the exploration stage. I have been trying out Omega theme which looks very promising and I congratulate the author on his excellent work.
Creating a subtheme vent smoothly and everything worked fine. Then I downloaded Beta, Gamma and Respond to learn best practices and then trouble started. Neither did work: The Beta and Gamma not at all - Respond reported errors same as the other two but otherwise worked.
See the photos for the results.
What can be happening? Strange since my suptheme worked perfectly.

These sub-themes are out of date
Hi JBL, Omega underwent a large change / advance when it moved from 7.x.2 to 7.x.3. Beta and Gamma work with the 7.x.2 version of Omega. They have not been updated yet for the current version of Omega.
Thanks
Hi ontological
Thank you for a promt answer!! I would very much like to use this theme and indeed Drupal for upcoming projects.
The more I dig into it the more I realize the power. On the other hand the learning curve is rather steep for a Drupal greenhorn like me, which is not surprising given the complexity and scopeof the system. The world owes a huge gratitude to the people behind it.
Thanks a lot...
