3.1

I am thrilled to announce the release of the newest version (V3.1) of the Reddit Video Maker Bot with a major improvement in speed. With optimizations implemented, this update makes the program up to 40 times faster than before. Additionally, we have fixed the error message in case someone doesn't have a sessionid and the login for Reddit is fixed for every language. We've also added a transparent image mode for the story mode. Download the latest version now for an even better experience!
