Hi Vicki!
I'll be happy to explain things here.
Anything you delete from a folder that is synced with Dropbox will be deleted from your account.
However, if you copy the content of your Camera Upload folder to another folder and you then delete content from the Camera Uploads folder, that won't affect the files from the original folder.
I hope that helps and let me know if there's anything else I can do for you!
2. After that folder has more data than you would like on your computer hard drive. then Create "new folder" and move all images to that "new folder".
3. Now that photos have been moved from that the "camera upload" folder to the "New Folder" then unsync the "new folder"
4. All photos will now be stored in the new folder on the cloud and not on your hard drive.
---------------------------------
Option 2
So the questions is... Is this the right process?
1. Upload photos to "camera upload" folder
2. After that folder has more data than you would like on your computer hard drive. then rename the "camera upload" folder to any name you like. and a new camera upload folder will be created in its place.
3. Now unsync the "new folder" that you created.
4. All photos will now be stored in the new folder on the cloud and not on your hard drive.
5. repeat this process as much as you like.
