Copied code from Retrieve a list of colors in C#

CODE:

private List GetColors()
{
    //create a generic list of strings
    List colors = new List();
    //get the color names from the Known color enum
    string[] colorNames = Enum.GetNames(typeof(KnownColor));
    //iterate thru each string in the colorNames array
    foreach (string colorName in colorNames)
    {
        //cast the colorName into a KnownColor
        KnownColor knownColor = (KnownColor)Enum.Parse(typeof(KnownColor), colorName);
        //check if the knownColor variable is a System color
        if (knownColor > KnownColor.Transparent)
        {
            //add it to our list
            colors.Add(colorName);
        }
    }
    //return the color list
    return colors;
}
