Hey Fedo,
this particular animation was drawn in Krita (as shown, comparing lines and drawn inside perspective boxes), sectioned, imported into OpenToonz, exported as an .avi and then converted to a gif.
However, Photoshop would be a much better option. Any of the CS suite has a good animation tool that works well for creating looping gifs in particular. Gifs I've posted previous to now have been made in CS4 and CS2 (and I much prefer this toolset for small animations.) I even tried to re-download photoshop to use for this, but alas, I couldn't get the download to go!
Anywho, this particular animation wasn't done with onion skin, just the initial lineup sketch drawn above - however, if I went to fix the jumping problems I would use that feature. CS or any animation-specific tool has onion skin options (Photoshop even lets you create layers that "meld" and "step" between two selected frames). This particular linework style is achieved by using a soft-edged opacity-pressure brush to sketch, which is of course a standard in any drawing program at all.
