Bug Description
Current dashboard implementation uses the old pattern of storing static media in the MEDIA_ROOT directory and serving from MEDIA_URL. This is detrimental to separation of static media from uploaded media, doesn't scale well to support media from third-party applications, and goes against current best practices in the Django community. Using Django 1.3's contrib.staticfiles app and relocating the "media" directory to be a "static" directory inside the dashboard app will take care of this problem and support future expansion much more easily.
