How do I get over unflattering pictures of myself on the internet?

I know this sounds a tad conceited. But, I will assure you I'm the epitome of the ugly duckling turned into a swan. And I also know that all pictures cannot be flattering. And I'd show you them, but they are so embarrassing. It's one thing to have a funny face with a good hair day and makeup. But, since I grew up with horrid acne and awful hair, I have a complex you could say of unwanted pictures. And since my roommates love how self conscious I am, they do it just to spite me. They also say, "Why should I delete the pictures if you look bad and I look good?" or "No one will see them anyway". I have never held something like this over their heads and when they ask for me to do or not do something I listen. And if no one sees them anyway, then why have them. Please do not tell me to get over it or don't worry about it or let it go. I can't. I don't want to opt out of fun events and pictures! And I can't stop being their friend over a picture. I just need some self confidence and a few words of sincere advice, THANKS.
