Hello, this should be easy to fix. In this dialog you only see the content of the directory that is the first one in the path. You simply have to switch the order of the paths in your OOo settings in that way that your personal template directory comes first. Your personal one should be in your $home directory. By the way, you should be able to navigate in this dialog manually to your personal directory.
