ALT+1 and ALT+2, Smiley Flags ☺☻

☺Press ALT+1 and you get a ☺

 
The Smiley flag is based upon the ALT+1 Code.  If you press ALT and 1 on an American Key Board you'll get a white smiley face.  The reason the flag is red is because red is coded to 1, because red is the first colour in the rainbow.  Coincidentally, the assigned contrast indicator is white, and ALT+1 codes for the white smiley face. ☺☻

☻Press ALT+2 and you get a☻
A secondary coincidence is that ALT+2 codes for the black smiley.  Orange is the second colour of the rainbow so it gets an orange background.  The main coincidence is that black is the assigned contrast indicator!

No matter the colour of a person, we can all smile.  Keep that smile in your heart!
