Q: iCloud photo

I pay for 200gb iCloud but then also found that if uses my computer hard drives space.

 

Regardless, I am wondering, if i have shared albums with my self, no one else is in the stream, and i upload photos from my "all photos' camera roll,

 

and then delete from my camera roll, will they delete in that stream thats shared in iCloud photo sharing?

 

 

I figured i could back up a lot of photos in the streams i made my self instead of making albums on my device.

iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 8.1.2

    If you delete the photos from your computer or a device, they will be deleted from iCloud. iCloud is a syncing system, not a storage system.

    This did not answer my question

     

     

    To be clear, If i upload photos to a shared album that has no one else, or maybe has other people shared, and then delete from my camera roll, will it delete it all, (camera roll + shared photos) or just the camera roll and keep the photos stored in the shared photos

     

    I believe i can just test this out myself, which i will, but didn't want to do it to a 1000 photos, and then wake up the next day, and see that all my photos were deleted within time...

     

    If i made albums, and deleted from "all photos"/"camera roll, i know in those albums, they would be deleted.

     

    thanks for trying.
