VB.Net 2005: setting colors on forms

[k3n51mm]

I have some controls that do not keep their designed colors on certain users' computers. I am using Custom colors in the aforementioned controls. The colors I want (just different shades of grey) are not in system colors, and they could change anyway depending on the user's configuration.

How can I guarantee that the color set at design time will be what is shown to all users?

How are you setting your colors?

You mention using SystemColors, why not just use Colors

like:
Colors.Red
Colors.Blue
Colors.Green
etc...

instead of:
SystemColors.Window
SystemColors.WindowText

Colors.red is not the same as SystemColors.windows
