Put this in the constructor of the splash class to place the (splash) form dead-center in the middle of the working area of the screen

this.StartPosition = FormStartPosition.Manual;
this.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(Screen.PrimaryScreen.WorkingArea.Width / 2 – Width / 2, Screen.PrimaryScreen.WorkingArea.Height / 2 – Height / 2);

Thanks, this is great!

To center it to the main form, add these two lines before Show():

splash.StartPosition = FormStartPosition.Manual;
splash.Location = new Point(this.Left + (this.Width / 2 – splash.Width / 2), this.Top + (this.Height / 2 – splash.Height / 2));

Very nice. I cant tell you how long I searched for the simplest example of this, and found nothing but over complicated examples, or very bad code. So I thank you for posting something so simple and understandable.
