what I did on another site was used right click on picture, copy image, save to computer. that way my pictures were saved to my computer then I went to the site and deleted them from the photo album I was no longer using. this way my photos were safe and secure on my computer and could be reuploaded to new photo albums of my choosing.

I chose not to use online group photo albums because anyone who can see those pics can at any time use right click copy and save essentially stealing photos of me, my wife, children, pets and so forth and claim them as their own. you might say my younger days I was internet ignorant and now do things in a more safe and secure way.

Another option I use for my photos if I dont want to keep on my computer, I transfer documents and photos to thumb drives / flash drives that you can buy in almost any store these days as they are the side of a key chain but with lots of memory space. that way again my photos are never gone forever.
