But strangely enough, it does offer a preview button and you can make simple gif animation on their official site. Instead, you'd have to export your individual frames and import it to any editing software you have to animate it.

It offers layer effects like what you would see in Photoshop but unlike the latter, albeit it does have some cool brushes installed, you can't fully customize the brush or canvas texture here.
