To create a conditional formating on a list.
1. Create a custom view in Sharepoint Designer
2. Create a Conditional format by marking a field, and pick it from Options ribbon.
3. Select Format Row and pick field name and choose conditions
4. In Style, choose category Background and Background-color
5. Save

Very handy for situations where certain conditions need to be highlighted given certain circumstances.
