About the flag

Well… here my sources show the flag in orange and black. We had a discussion about such cases of “weird” shades and got to the conclusion that the laws probably do not contemplate them. We only had some doubts about the orange colour (should it be yellow, should it be red?). So, the above is probably correct by the law (probably — note that this is a non-official site). It is yet to be known if my source shows a flag as used or just a printing error.
