You can also also change the size of the frames on export by changing the 320 in this line:
ffmpeg -i input -vf scale=320:-1:flags=lanczos,fps=10 frames/ffout%03d.png

Then use convert (or gm convert if you prefer GraphicsMagick) to make your animated GIF:
convert -loop 0 frames/ffout*.png output.gif
