Xina, revenge is childish. I couldn't say if your images were horrible, or not, because you don't have a gallery here anymore and I have never seen your work. But based off of your reaction, it's easy to determine that you are embarassed over the affair, and this embarassment has driven you to lash out at multiple, non-related parties. This makes me wary of wanting to view your artwork. Is it also based off of unbridled anger? I happen to enjoy anger, but I don't think your brand of anger is my favorite flavor, M'lady. I think that as far as criticism goes... Sharing. The whole affair stinks of Kindegarten sharing issues. If you put your artwork online, then people are going to critique you. You will not hear what you want to hear, period. This is the nature of sharing ideas with other people, at it's core it's about putting your ego aside and allowing others to affect you. I think that if one cannot accept criticism from complete strangers, then you have no business sharing your artwork with complete strangers.
