You can start by not using -geometry, but use -resize instead. and second, read you image BEFORE modifying them! :-)

Rezing animations is frught with problems, most of which is due to the color and transparency limitations of GIF. The result also often has optimization problems caused by this too.

The new -ordered-dither color reduction methods should help you fix some of these problems, but I have not organised these facts yet for IM Examples.
