If you are in development mode then define just one line:

STATICFILES_DIRS = ( os.path.join('static'), )

You don't need to define STATIC_ROOT = '/Users/myuser/myprojectname/myprojectname'

OR

STATICFILES_DIRS as BASE_DIR

So, working solution is :

STATIC_URL = '/static/'

STATICFILES_DIRS = ( os.path.join('static'), )
