Alternative wording for an old old page (customize/advanced)
Not linking to the comment because I don't want to bring unnecessary attention to somebody without asking their permission, but they talked about hitting https://www.dreamwidth.org/customize/advanced/ and seeing the warning "Unless you're a programmer or web designer, you should probably stay away from this area" and getting too intimidated to go further.
I think we could make alternative wording that doesn't tell people who aren't programmers or web designers to "stay away", one that's more inclusive--and we have more documentation here that can help somebody out.
What do people think?

This is the place to make manual edits to customize the code that regulates how this journal displays. Mostly this will be of use to web programmers and web designers, and people who are learning these skills."
It's okay if people get a bit intimidated. Hacking on your journal is intimidating! The point of the warning is to warn off those who aren't up for that. It's just that those with healthy trepidation should be welcomed.
