ok! that did it, though I had to use the -geometry option to
force it to 352x240 (using -resize and -scale only did 352x238 for
some reason), and I can make MPEG videos now! only to find out mpeg
videos want to be at 30fps! ack. I guess I have to make a buncha copies
of each graphic in order to make it appear to be 2-3 fps(too hard to
follow the day's weather when 24 hours shows in about 4 seconds :)

the mpeg video was only about 340kb too, though I'm sure it will grow
quite a bit once i increase the number of files by 60 times.

thanks!!

woohoo.
