Sort of like the ones JollyJack does.
So not strictly hand-drawn, but you know what I mean. :P

You mean frame-by-frame as in comic book style?
Not animated in any way

Nah, sort of like, each frame of the GIF is individually drawn.

What are you asking though?
If you're working on paper, make sure the paper is thin and the drawings are thick, to give you a reference for the next frame. If you're on a computer life is a lot easier, since you make each frame a layer, and set the new layer at 50% opacity (or less) while you draw it.
Then export as an animated GIF.
I must be missing something because typing all that seems very patronising....

It's gonna be on the computer.
What I'm trying to say is, I'm wondering if there's any tips on animation itself. Like, motion lines and stuff.

Ah, right
Beyond me, sorry, my efforts basically go as far as "scribble and hope".

I'm no expert, but I'd imagine studying the old masters would help
Like download some old Disney cartoons and study them frame by frame

Hmm, good idea.
I could also potentially analyze GIFs frame by frame. ^^
