TYVM for your response. My first reply does not show, so hopefully I'm not double posting.
This is what I have so far: TEMPLATE_DIRS "C:/DjangoProjects/mysite/mytemplates/" base_site.html location C:\DjangoProjects\mysite\mytemplates This is what base_site.html reads. {% extends "admin/base.html" %} {% load i18n %} {% block title %}{{ title }} | {% trans 'Django site admin' %}{% endblock %} {% block branding %} <h1 id="site-name">{% trans 'Django Administration' %}</h1> {% endblock %} {% block nav-global %}{% endblock %} If this supposed to help me change the appearance? I don't see how to change anything here.
