I feel compelled to reply to your last comment on people who aren't artists posting negative comments about your work.
While it is true that most of us aren't artists, I think you'll agree we can at least say whether or not we like somthing. The whole point of posting a fetish pic on a free fetish site (such as this) is so others can enjoy it. (well, there are other reasons, but that's the main one). The people are well qualified to say they did or didn't enjoy a pic.
I don't wish to sound condescending, but I feel that when you post anything on the web you need to be prepared for strong negative reactions. That's just the nature of the web. This is a public site, where people come to enjoy things, and the rating and comments systems are there for them to say if they do or don't enjoy things.
Be honest, if they had all told you how awesome your work is, would you have told them to shut as they aren't artists and have no right to praise you?
Besides, you'll find that in most any field the professional respected critics of movies, books, music, and art are not themselves makers of that product. You don't need to produce to appreciate somthing.
Ultimately, I'm writing this to help you. I've seen other artists post their work, get negative reviews, and then make comments about how only artists can judge art. I know for a fact several of them wound up mired in flame wars, and others ended up giving up their art altogether.
Ultimatley this is just some advice you didn't ask for, and you can take it, leave it, tell me to shove it up my nose, whatever. It won't hurt my feelings one way or the other. But if you really don't care what people say, ignore them, if you keep fighting your detractors you'll just be giving yourself a huge headache.
