If you do not have money to buy Adobe CS6, you may think about  synfig for your animation.  Synfig Studio is a free and open-source 2D animation software and creates film-quality animation using a vector and bitmap artwork. You can create  animation easily frame-by frame using sygfig built-in tools.
Synfig can be downloaded from:

.To export the animation to youtube format:
Right click on animation, in pop-up menu, select File->render, in pop-up window,  change filename ending .yuv, target Auto. For example you produce twilight1.yuv file. Tying following command in Windows command prompt with same directory of yuv file:
ffmpeg -i twilight1.yuv -sameq twilight1.mpg 
You will produced a mpg file twilight1.mpg, which can be uploaded to YouTube.
