Lower bodyfat so the muscles are more visible. Gaining muscle in your chest would also help.

Also gaining muscle particularly in the inner chest region. Fly's would be great, and maybe a close grip bench.
But most of all, its BF%

flyes, as blaze said, are great. i especially recommend cable flyes, but hold the rep at the top to really feel the burn

as was indicated to me quite pointedly on another thread involving this same question, you can't build up one part of a muscle over another - flyes don't work the inner chest any better than presses or pullovers do because muscle behave exactly like rubber bands - they stretch and contract along their entire length, not in sections.

build mass (flyes, presses, whatever) and cut bodyfat to get the result you want.

They do, however, provide a greater range of motion for the chest specifically :

I would just stick to nothing but WideGrip BenchPress, and Dumbell Flies! my 0.2c

and like others mentioning, lower the bodyfat if you want ripples in the chest like in the links'

I definitely agree with threenorns!

I usually do decline DB flies after regular db flat flies and it seems to work pretty well.

however, working your abs too would make your chest looks better (i believe that a nice 6 pack makes the chest looks much better)

agree?

A six-pack pretty much adds to the entire impression of your front, so yes....

The line between your chest that divides each pec is enhanced by building up a substantial amount of muscle in the pecs and then having a low enough body fat % that it shows up even more visibly. That is about it, there are no special exercises to make this more apparent, it comes only with development and a lower body fat%.
