How to create and draw into a white empty Image

Hi,

I created some thumbnails from pictures - they all have a size of up to
80 pixels in width or height (if it is a square pic, the size is
exactly 80 x 80, otherwise 80 pixel is the size of the greater
dimension).

For displaying purposes, I want to view them all in the same size, that
is 80 x 80.
Pictures that are smaller shall have a white border to fill up the size
to 80 pixels.

How can I do that? I have the thumbnail already in a
System.Drawing.Image object, but I have no clue how to add this white
border, or even how to create the empty 80 x 80 white picture first,
where I want to draw my thumbnail into. I looked already for the
classes Bitmap, DrawImage, Graphics (all in namespace System.Drawing),
but couldn't find any appropriate method.


I appreciate any help,

TheLetti
