I have a couple of sites using themes created with Omega 3 as the base theme. I keep getting prompted to upgrade the base themes to Omega 4. I've tried removing Omega 3 as base and installing Omega 4, which usually really messes up the design. If I'm staying with Omega 3 for the time being, should I just ignore these updates eventhough Drupal's system thinks they are critical updates.

Thanks,

Jason

You can ignore it

You can ignore that message. Omega 4.x is a major version update and is not backwards compatible with Omega 3.x It is not necessary to upgrade from 3.x to 4.x.

I would keep an eye out for any security related updates to Omega 3.x though.

Thanks.

Thank you. Good to know. Upgrading all my Omega 3 sites to Omega 4 isn't something I have time for right now.

You could also remove the message if you want to?

No problem, If the message is annoying you or a client is seeing it and you want to hide it you can do it several ways but I would suggest you use this module built specifically for the task.
