I was wondering whether in Photos app it is possible to save a picture to some specific folder only, respectively, I have some photos of documents or screenshots which I do not want to show up in camera roll as well but only in specifically designated folder? As far as I see, there is no such option...a picture is visible both, in camera roll and another folder.

I kinda do the same thing with some wallpapers I have. On your computer, make a folder and put your pictures in there and name the folder to what you want. Hook up to computer and open iTunes and on the lefthand side you will see Photos. Click on that and then select the folder you created, sync it and your done. It will be in its own folder in your Photos app. If you want to delete it, you will have to hook back up to iTunes and uncheck that box and it will ask if you want to remove the photos.

Thanks for the idea! :)

Still wondering why there is no possibility to solve this in iOS itself... :(
