If you know the rules, then you know that your entire gallery needs to be deleted. You have to understand that not only is it extremely offensive to artists to watch someone steal the works of others, claim it as their own, and then attempt to profit from them, but it is also illegal.

But If I have the permission of the web that I took the images from, it is not stealing?

The sites you pulled your images from are image galleries, and not intended for stock use. They don't give anyone permission to redistribute the images, and nor do they have the right to do so.
If you go to a stock image site, then they give you permission to use their images for editorial purposes [link]
Editorial purposes don't include selling them as prints or claiming them as your own, though, so be sure to read the release information.

Ok, I have been looking a stock image site of miley, and I didn't found. If I upload all the things I have in my deviant, in a stock image site, am I still breaking the DA's rules?

It's going to be hard to find Miley stock because it's expensive to get the rights to a photo of her. [link] Here is one that you can use. The release information states that it's okay for editorial use.
As far as placing these images in a stock image site, just know that so long as you are using an image that you don't have the rights to use, you are not only breaking DA's rules, but unfortunately, you are breaking copyright law.
It can be difficult sometimes to know if you're breaking copyright laws. A good way to know if you are doing something wrong is to try to imagine how you would feel if taking these pictures is how you make your living. You wouldn't want other people photo manipulating your photography a little bit and then claiming them as their own and even selling them. It's the same as stealing something from a store and then selling it to someone else.
You know, you can easily take pictures of yourself and your friends and photo manipulate them.

If a page says Please credit our site, photographers, and/or owners if stated. It means that if I do that, I can use the photos?

Yes, but only if they specifically say you do not need their written permission, and that you are free to edit and redistribute their work.
