How should I start/ learn GFX and what can it be helpful in?

It's not hard to learn Photoshop or any other program with the wealth of information online, even the graphic tutorial section here has a few good beginner guides. Youtube is a great resource, and google can answer any question you have. It's completely up to you to determine what you want to use your skills for.

Have you heard of this program called "Photoshop"? Import it there.

You basicly drag it in, Make a new text layer, put it above every movement layer, then Go to "save for web" Save it as gif.
Something like this ^^

I'm not going to explain the whole alignment process, but when you are aligning 2 or more objects/images group them together so they align properly. Sorry I can't get my point across well.

Are there any shortcuts to aligning images/text, and equally space them apart? I know how to, but its not the most efficient way and takes alot of time.

Use rulers. CTRL +R, drag out the blue lines and use the numbers at the top to space them out evenly. Align everything that way.

Create each letter on a separate layer, being sure to align them. Go to window > timeline. Create new frame animation.

Create a new frame. Move the C to the top, completely out of the canvas. Select your frame and click the tween button, leave the number of frames at 5 and be sure to "tween with previous frame". This should create 5 frames, and if you click play you'll see the C move out of the frame. Repeat this with the rest of the letters. Then, select all frames holding shift and using the drop down menu in the top right of the timeline panel click "reverse frames". Also, be sure to set your frames to "no delay", and mess around with certain frames (such as when the letter drops in completely) to get the timing correct.
