Yeah its a bit of a good way to actually look at how the symptoms of these genetic disorders/illnesses, etc, can impact upon their lives. I also love the diagrams; I adore drawing and when I'm doing Biology, I feel like my love for it sky-rockets when I draw like a pentose sugar and label it (Ribose or Deoxyribose), or when I draw a nucleus with the nucleolus and nuclear membrane surrounding it, or my favourite, mitochondria, chloroplasts and drawing Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum! hehe I LOVE Biology!!

I'm not a very artistic person but I do think that diagrams help a lot in biology. It's great that you use your love for drawing in bio. I can already assume you are very enthusiastic about this subject and that you'll excel. :)

so would the third edition still be useful because im attempting to make a sale, but if i'm disadvantaging this guy i dont want to do it.
Yes it is. I have both and there are almost no differences between the two; most of the content is exactly the same.

Is Nature of Biology better than Nelson? because my school also decided to use nelson, and I hear that NoB is better.

I used both last year and NoB was better in every single way (except maybe in weight). That Nelson textbook and its shitty layout still makes me angry. It's like the windows 8 of biology textbooks - the pretty coloured pages and the story like layout make it seem kinda cool when you first use it, but try and do any proper work with it and it makes life so much harder. (Sorry for the rant, that textbook annoys me so much that I couldn't help it >:( )
