I am willing to pay good money to any photoshop pro who can help me fix my export/file problem. I have a design that I want to export and it looks perfect on the back of a shirt in Photoshop but i cannot export the design as a png because it is in lighten mode. When i put it into normal mode the black background is there and I cannot remove it with precision. Please help ASAP.

This is not the forum to recruit paid help. Behance will give you options for that as will other such sites.
However, if you have the design file in separate layers, then use it and turn off the background black layer. That will give you a better result than trying to remove the background from a flattened file.
If not then you may be able to use Blend If and turn the black in Blend if this layer up. Alt drag to split the triangle and soften the transition. Or for more control :
Click on RGB in the channels panel and then load channel as selection. Add a layer mask using Layer > Layer Mask 'reveal selection' option. Then click on the mask and use a curves adjustment to turn the areas you want to keep white on the mask and those you don't black.
After that, you may also need a curve adjustment on the layer itself and you will need some touch up on the mask as this will remove black areas of the image. Just paint the mask white in those areas to restore them
