Re:Why Is the Django Admin "Ugly"?

The only thing I’ve noticed is that the “ADD POST” text is at a different height than the “+” next to it, which is a bit jarring. It’s also the only button shaped as a rectangle with rounded corners on the page (aside from “Go” which is styled differently as well). Overall, I see 4 different styles of buttons on this page. But other than the buttons, it seems fine to me.

Yep, the different button styles for no clear reasons is one. This is even more apparent on other views. On that screenshot, you can also spot questionable alignment between e.g. checkboxes and the title text in the table. Contrast issues with text against different background colors. And I’d also question whether UPPER CASE TEXT is necessary.
In the screenshot I only see 1 button on the page... The two styles of "Add" are links to another page, and I'm not seeing at all whatever the 4th one you're seeing is. Is the 4th below the screenshot?
