Microsoft's David Lean has a great series of posts on "heatmapping" and other color-based conditional formatting in Reporting Services tables and charts (link is to part 4 of the series) (via Robert Bruckner).
Particularly useful are Dave's algorithms that work on colors and shades and conversion to hex values; part 2 of the series has how to change hue, while part 3 details how to change saturation. And, Dave packs as much useful content into his tips and asides as his main content!
