Solution 1

You can make use of WindowState property. Set it to maximized for all the child forms.

How to change the form color, apart from BLUE. ?

You mean the title bar? There is no easy way to do that. You will have to manually draw it. Since it is a non-client area (i.e. out of form's control), you may have to use P/Invoke. Search for "Change Windows for Title bar color" and you may get samples.

Solution 2

On the sub-forms Set the StartLocation property to CenterParent.
