Quick question about photo stream?

I have a lot of pictures in my phone and it's taking up most of my memory. I wanna delete my photo stream from my phone but I'm scared to lol. If I delete my photo tream will those pictures be on iCloud? And another question is some pictures that I have on my camera roll that aren't in my photo stream, is there anyway I can put those in the photo stream album ? Thank you:)

    There may be other ways I don't know about, but this is my method:

    1. Set up a folder on your computer named "iPhone photos" (inside that folder, you can create sub-folders of your choice to help you sort and keep track of your pics)

    2. Put the photos into that folder, as well as all other photos you want to have on your phone.

    3. Plug in your phone, open iTunes, go to your device, then to photos.

    4. Tell iTunes to synchronize your photos with the iPhone photos folder.

    Note: You must make sure to back up any photos you have on your phone first, because once you synchronize with that folder, the other photos will be gone off your phone. In future, just make sure that all your photos that you want on your phone will go into that special folder on your computer.

    You can now delete the photos of your camera roll, because you are no longer creating a "virtual album" on your phone, but you have an actual separate one on your computer that you are synchronizing with.
