It did not occur to me that these both might be males, even though I have read the article... I was just excited to find DPs.
Sorry for the crappy pics and bad background..it took a lot for me to get these photos..

upon looking really close I think they both have 1 curved green blue reflective line around each eye.

Males have wrinkles which are pretty pronounced (as you have already been told).
Here is a picture (taken from dwarfpuffers.com) showing male wrinkles.

They also have a line from their bottom lip extending back along the dead center of the belly. Males can have a lot more yellow on them as well. As already stated, the eye wrinkles are the most obvious.

It's very hard to tell with those pictures, and if they're young, you might not be able to tell at all yet.
