Django Displaying Images Not Found

This has been driving me crazy for 2 days now and I cannot find an answer to this. I have looked through countless posts and cannot get this to work.
I am trying to display a profile picture for a user using Django ImageField in my model.
For some reason it keeps on coming up with 404 not found, even though I can see that the path to the image file is correct.
For example:
My model:
class KPILead(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=255)
position = models.CharField(max_length=255)
company = models.ForeignKey(KPICompany)
profile_pic = models.ImageField(upload_to='profile_pics/')
def __str__(self):
return self.name
This is indeed uploading the image file to the media/profile_pics folder in my root directory.
The view:
#login_required(login_url='/')
def eftlead_detail(request, eftlead_id):
context = dict()
context['eftlead'] = KPILead.objects.get(pk=eftlead_id)
context['team_names'] = KPITeam.objects.filter(eft_lead__id=eftlead_id)
context['incidents'] = KPIIncidentReport.objects.filter(eft_lead__id=eftlead_id)
context['image_url'] = context['eftlead'].profile_pic.url
return render(request, 'templates/eftlead.html', context)
The static and media settings in my settings file:
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media')
And I have added:
+ static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT) + static(settings.STATIC_URL, document_root=settings.STATIC_ROOT)
to my urls file.
It just gives an error of 404 not found, even when I check the source in Chrome or Firefox I can see that correct path is being shown. If I try and click on the image in the source to go to http://127.0.0.1:8000/media/profile_pics/default.jpg I get an error of 404 not found, so Django is clearly not finding the file even though the path is correct.
As I said I have struggling with this for 2 days now and is probably the last thing I need to finish this project off, but I cannot understand what is going wrong.
I would happy to provide further information if required and thank you for any help.
EDIT: I have included my full settings file.

Django 1.11 ignoring tempate trans tag

I've set up everything right, and when I launch:
makemessages --locale fr --locale en
it only takes in account the translation string used in the Python files, not in the template files (NB: I have {% load i18n %} in the first line of all the template files). What did I forget?

You need to use --extensions argument for makemessages to provide your custom extension. By default makemessages process only py, html, js, txt extensions.

Getting a 404 error when running my Django server for site

I get the error:
Page not found (404)
Request Method: GET
Request URL: http://localhost:8001/
Using the URLconf defined in recipe_organizer.urls, Django tried these URL patterns, in this order:
^admin/
^recipes/
^media/(?P.*)$
The current URL, , didn't match any of these.
It was working not too long ago but not nothing will post.

Does anyone have any ideas? It would be much appreciated.

Can you access http://localhost:8001/admin/ ?
If yes, then the issue simply is that you haven't defined a URL entry for the root http://localhost:8001/
Something like:
url(r'^$', views.index, name='index'),
should do the trick.
Don't forget to define index in views.py

You should add following to your settings.py
STATICFILES_DIRS = [
os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "static"),
'C:/ProjectPath/static',
]
If you have only 1 settings.py file, you should change BASE_DIR value with
BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__))
In django 1.8 and later, you should also define a 'templates' folder like 'static'.
Put your html files into "templates" folder and add css/js files like "static/css/bootstrap.css" in your templates(html files).

How can I make these pinax themes work for django 1.7? Thank you
