If I make "Only Me" Facebook photos "Public", will they appear in newsfeed?

    I uploaded an album of photographs on Facebook. However, before I "published" them to my account, my laptop crashed. Now the album is listed among my other photos albums, but instead of being available to "Your Friends" like all the other albums, it's visible to "Only Me". Presumably this is because I had not get published them.

    However, if I change the "Only Me" availability to "Your Friends", will the album then be shared on my most recent Facebook newsfeed? I have a feeling it won't, as technically they were uploaded a few days ago, and so if I make them available to "Your Friends", the only people who may notice them are those that specifically seek them out.

    Anyone know the answer to this?

    afaik, no. The newsfeed normally only shows your recent/almost immediate activities that you publish.
    Changing the settings doesn't alter the time they were saved so they shouldn't appear in your recent newsfeed if they were uploaded and saved days ago :)
