You template dirs will fail if your BASE_DIR has any path value at all. The following is what you really want ...

# if templates are not found here look in app_name/templates
TEMPLATE_DIRS = (
    os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates/').replace('\\','/'),
)

... Then in BASE_DIR/templates make a dir /admin and copy the ../site-packages/django/contrib/admin/templates/admin/<whatever>.html template you want to change into your project.

It should end up in BASE_DIR/templates/admin/<whatever>.html

As indicated in the comment line above, if Django doesn't find the template it is looking for in your project's ../admin dir it will look in its own template dir.

Please help
