Two things: 1. Put your media local to your site - I use /home/user/www/dj-project/static and /home/user/www/dj-project/collected_media for project at /home/user/www/dj-project/
2. The place you are referring to is inside the virtual env's little jail. You can find that by using the cdsitepackages command when in the venv. But you shouldn't really put your data in there. The Two Scoops of Django book has a good example of choices available and then good reasoning for the style they recommend. It's worth the read. cheers L.

Everything you need to see is there: It’s everything you want, and it’s very pleasing because there’s no extra information that you don’t get to see. Everything’s in a nice package for you. But sublime art is unframeable: It’s an image or idea that implies that there’s a bigger image or idea that you can’t see: You’re only getting to look at a fraction of it, and in that way it’s both beautiful and scary, because it’s reminding you that there’s more that you don’t have access to. It’s now sort of left the piece itself and it’s become your own invention, so it’s personal as well as being scary as well as being beautiful, which is what I really like about art like that. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Adventure Time http://theholenearthecenteroftheworld.com/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
