I'm curious because I have a LOT of messages to go through and plenty of pictures in all of the text convos I have...

Is there a tweak that scans your messages and pullout the photos/media in your texts/bitesms so you can save them to your camera roll?
 
I don't know of any tweak that does so, but in case you are a bit of a thinkerer and enjoy SSH... the location for attachments is:
/var/mobile/Library/SMS/Attachments (works for iMessage'd stuff too).
 
I usually just copy my SMS folder to my PC and serach for the picture files and take what I want from there
 
how does one copy the sms folder to the computer?

OpenSSH from cydia and WinSCP on the computer is one option

A less safer but "easier" option would be afc2add from cydia and iFunBox on the computer
