  Does anyone know where the icons used by the admin panel are located or if they can be replaced? They don't work so well on dark backgrounds.

  Easiest way to find out where they are is to right click on the image and view properties. And yes they can be changed.

  If you insert this
  

  Code

  .pn-admincontainer img { background-color:#fff;padding:5px;}

  
  in the /system/Admin/pnstyle/admin.css it should be better.

  The current iconset is not good with dark backgrouds at all.
  In general, we need alternative stylesheets for sites with dark backgrounds.
  
  Currently there's a file /system/Admin/pnstyle/admin_dark.css and seems that you need to add those styles in the end of the admin.css. Note that any solution that implies to modify /system files is not good for maintainability. You should create a new folder: /config/styles/Admin and put there your customized admin.css to not have problems upgrading the /system folder and do not lost your changes.
  
  Also, you can go to the "Admin" module panel and choose another theme for the backend.
  
  Dark backgrounds needs some attention...

  Thanks for the above.
  
  I know customized module templates go in .."themename"/templates/modules/"modulename", but where do the modified CSS files for each module go? I just tried the above suggestion, but the changes didn't appear. Im guessing I had the file in the wrong directories.

  Yes, Zikula is too ordered and there's a folder for styles only:
  "YourTheme"/style/"ModuleName"/"filename".css

  Yup, this logic at first is a little counter intuitive, at least it was for me. But once you are accustomed to it, it does seem to make sense. It allows for shorter pathways and a centralized CSS templating directory.
