Outlook 2003 Like Headers

[Kasracer]

This is a very simple class that inherits the System.Windows.Forms.Label. basically, its background looks just like Outlook 2003's headers with the Luna theme.

I know we should make it so our App follows a system's theme, and can be easily modified to do so, I just like the blue look

Anyway, here is the class:

public class OutlookLikeHeader : Label
    {
        public OutlookLikeHeader()
        {
            this.ForeColor = Color.White;
            this.Font = new Font("Arial", 14.25f, FontStyle.Bold);
            this.AutoSize = false;
        }
        protected override void OnResize(EventArgs e)
        {
            base.OnResize(e);
        }
        protected override void OnPaint(PaintEventArgs e)
        {
            using (Brush b = new SolidBrush(this.ForeColor))
            {
                e.Graphics.DrawString(this.Text, this.Font, b, e.ClipRectangle.X, e.ClipRectangle.Y);
            }
        }
        protected override void OnPaintBackground(PaintEventArgs pevent)
        {
            this.Height = Convert.ToInt32(pevent.Graphics.MeasureString(this.Text, this.Font).Height)+ 5;
            using (Brush b = new LinearGradientBrush(this.ClientRectangle, Color.FromArgb(88, 133, 214), Color.FromArgb(15, 55, 154), LinearGradientMode.Vertical))
            {
                pevent.Graphics.FillRectangle(b, this.ClientRectangle);
            }
        }
    }

Attached is what it looks like. It's very basic code but I thought it may help someone.
