....but the default value must be a constant expression, so it is better to
add an overloaded version like

public sub mySub()
mySub(Color.white)

Optional parameters must not be structures. Create multiple overloads:

\\\
Public Overloads Sub Bla()
Bla(Color.Red)
End Sub

Public Overloads Sub Bla(ByVal Foo As Color)
