Just curious what everyone does as far as ab workouts. I see the guys with 6 packs and can never seem to get them ripped like that, the upper ones are visible but lower not as much. Once I start doing a new workout I can see some results but after a couple weeks the muscle burn during the workout starts to go away and I feel like I'm not doing as much. And I'm not one of those 100 pound kids that can do a couple crunches and be done with it either. I just want a nice set of abs (defined sides too), any suggestions?

yes compound exercises help build a strong core but the key is resistance training. many people do hundreds of crunches...cool. now think about it. your abs are a muscle. would you work your biceps with a hundred curls? i sure hope not. use medicine balls on your situps and increase weight of mball as it gets easier. do hanging leg raises for lower abs, when those get easy, put a weight/strap a weight between your feet. just try this and tell me it if doesnt help* reps for life.
edit: if your bf isnt low enough then your not going to have abs regardless of what you do.

You wont notice your abdominal muscles in my opinion until your about 9-10%. You will need to lower your BF before you see any difference in that region. As noted above all them exercises are perfect for trying to get great abs but if your BF is not low enough it's pretty pointless. Also when you do abdominal workouts don't forget your obliques as it's important to smash them just as much as your abs. Good luck.
