This is an issue with your Django configuration. First, make sure that
MEDIA_ROOT in settings.py is set to your static media folder. Then, if
you're using a UNIX-like OS:

ln -s /PATH/TO/DJANGO/contrib/admin/media /PATH/TO/MEDIA_ROOT/admin

If you're in Windows, you'll have to dig around some more or wait for
someone else to give you an answer.

Also, it's generally considered a good idea to have a separate
lightweight webserver handling your static media. I'm using nginx and
apache2, but I've heard of people using all sorts of combinations.
