I have a form with a certain BackColor. I'd like it to be
an MDIContainer but as soon as I set the IsMDIContainer
property to true my BackColor becomes gray.

Isnt it possible to have an MDIContainer with a colored
background?

You need to set the background of the MdiClient, not the MdiContainer.

foreach (Control ctl in this.Controls)
{
if (ctl.GetType() == typeof(MdiClient))
{
ctl.BackColor = Color.Blue;
}
}
