{
  // This is a different way to determine if the user clicked cancel.
  // Show the color dialog and store result (Ok or Cancel).
  DialogResult result = colorDialog1.ShowDialog();
  // See if user pressed ok.
  if (result == DialogResult.OK)
  {
     // Set form background to the selected color.
     this.BackColor = colorDialog1.Color;

Experiment: After the font changes, or the greeting changes, or the size of the form changes, center the greeting.
After the picture changes, or when the form changes size, center the picture.
