How money moves up

            
    
              
  • Paying a work means paying its split. That is the only way a sale happens here.
    • 
              
  • When a remix's split is distributed, its parent's split gets the parent's cut, and the remix's creator side gets the rest.
    • 
              
  • The parent's split forwards its own parent's cut when someone distributes it. Each level waits for its own distribution.

  • Lines join a work to the work it remixes.
    • 
              
  • pays #N x% is the cut a work sends to its parent's split. asks y% is what it takes from each of its own remixes.
    • 
              
  • A square pattern instead of a picture means Remix has not screened that work's image, so it shows the work's hash instead.
