I've taken the liberty of cleaning the crap from this thread.
To change the appearance of the perk machines, you simply need to edit the textures.
Download IW's IWI2DDS tools (google), and use it to convert these iwi files (from raw/images):
Open them with Photoshop (or similar) and edit to your heart's content. Lastly use the same IWI2DDS tools to convert your new dds files back to IWI, then put them in your mod's images folder (example: C:\Program Files (x86)\Activision\Call of Duty - World at War\mods\nazi_zombie_map\images\) Note: You will need to install Nvidia's DDS tools for Photoshop, or use an image editing program that supports opening and saving DDS files.
Lastly, check their filenames on the Mods tab of Launcher and build your mod iwd:
Easiest thing to do is download Tom's Xmodel Utilities and let it "scan" your fastfiles for images. It will extract all the images from the main .iwd's into raw/images.
Second, faster but harder solution is to find them yourself in /main/
