Make sure you are not scaling the java.awt.Image on the server before
the Gif conversion. Make sure your browser is not scaling the Gif it
loads.
Creating the java.awt.Image uses some graphics resources from the system
it is on. I once got totally black gifs because I started my server
from a remote shell ( the server ran on Unix of course ). When I
started my server from a local shell on the Unix server box, I had no
trouble.
