question about animated GIF/banner.

I'm trying to make an animated banner by following a tutorial for Paint.net.

The instructions says:
"....Have a background image as a constant.
On a new layer, have the object that you wish to move. Save the normal image as 1.gif, then change the location of the layer by (in this example) 10px for each image, as shown..."

Is there a setting somewhere in paint.net that will allow you to move an object by 10px, or do I just need to drag it carefully each time? Whats an easier way to change the distance so it can be consistent?
thanks.
 
so what is '10px'? how far is it? does paint.net have a fuction that can move an object a certain distance, or would I Just need to keep my mouse steady and drag the object?

Can you zoom in to pixel size? If so, you could draw with pencil 10 pixels (10 points) and just move it that much and erase pencil afterward.
