If anyone is telling you charging $5 for your work and time is greedy, then I commend you for not telling them right the hell off from the moment they're fingers hit send on that message.
You should never have to be selling your art and time for pennies as it is. Everyone who's whining can just take their business elsewhere and take advantage of another artist who is more than ready to completely under price themselves. Guilting an artist into underselling themselves completely is disgusting as it is, and I can't imagine wanting business from such people anyways.
That said, you are not being greedy, at all. Unless you are literately selling 2 minutes worth of work in MSPaint, there is NO reason to be selling your art for 100 points.
If anything, the people saying you are being greedy are not only being insanely greedy themselves, but utterly tactless and rude.
