I was looking for something similar to the first screenshot of the question. The one I found on codeproject looks exact what you are looking for. It is based on WinForms and has almost all required controls within.

You can still use the WPF one which you could host as a control within a windows form. The WPF/Winforms integration is pretty cool : You can read more about it over here (at my blog actually) : http://sachabarbs.wordpress.com/2008/02/26/winforms-wpf-interop/

You may need to jiggle the WPF color picker a little to expose a property for color which is accessable from the hosting winforms form, which you would show as a dialog
