Adding a Custom Form/Dialog to the Toolbox

I've been trying to create custom controls for my toolbox. I'm able to easily create a UserControl or Control and when I build the solution they appear in my Toolbox. I'd like to do the same thing with a Form - in the way that the ColorDialog and AboutBox item's work. Does anyone know how to do this?
