Thanks Lee - that did it :)
Just for the record this is what I did ...
In my templates/admin/base_site.html
{% extends "admin/base.html" %}
{% block extrastyle %}<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"
href="/static/css/darker.css" />{% endblock %}
Then in my /static/css/darker.css I copied the relevant section from
contrib.admin's base.css like so ...
.help, p.help {
font-size: 10px !important;
color: #444444;
}
... and bingo I can read the help text much more easily.
Cheers
Mike

I would like to adjust the admin app's base.css. Nothing outrageous. I just
want to change all the #999 color values to something a little bit darker so
screen text is slightly easier to see.
I could write a python script to do that but it feels wrong.
I tried locating somewhere in my project to put my own adjusted base.css but
can't find exactly where to put it.
collectstatic gets base.css from contrib.admin and puts it into
/static/admin/css but anything in my project gets put straight into
/static/css
Is there a simple way to avoid editing the contrib.admin base.css?
Thanks

I think this still works:
