Do you want to be a really good animator or do you want to just mess around and make things right now?

Pick a program:

>Free

Pencil 2D

Krita (Beta)

PAP

>Premium

Flash

Toon Boom

Anime Studio

Autodesk

Then learn the UI and start making random things.

If you need more help, just ask!

Practice until you git gud the dumb ass way, which is fun, or learn LOOH-MISSS and then try your hand at animation which is also fun but much more methodical.

You little shit.

As for animation tools GIMP plus the GAP tools is a good start. From there you can move on to flash and learn fancier time saving tricks there.
