Are you running Konqueror from GNOME?

Well, I think yes :-)

In Gnome Look¹ there are many themes, GTK styles and colour patterns you 
can try. If you like dark schemas, "Sonar" from openSUSE was very good 
(IIRC it used mainly a black/green pattern).

Anyway, Tranmission will be okay (I guess you're using the GTK+ flavour) 
but Konqueror uses a Qt framework, maybe you encounter some integration 
problem with this.
