    If you delete them from photo stream on your iPad, they will be deleted from all devices connected to your photo stream.  If you want to free up space, save them to your camera roll on your iOS devices (by tapping Edit, tap all the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll), and to a different folder on your computer if you are syncing it with your photo stream.  You can then delete them from photo stream on any of your devices.  When you do, they will be deleted from photos stream on all your devices, but will remain in the camera roll.
