Default blending and transparency

Hi, I have a logo I've created with various blending styles and gradients on different layers which is all set on a gradient bg layer that is a clip of the bg from the website I eventually want to put the logo on. I hope that made sense. Anyways, I want to save my final product (as a png) without my background layer, so the bg is just transparent. However, many of the colors in my blended layer and gradients get messed up when I remove the background layer. Is there any way to remove the background without messing up blending and gradients?

P.S. I tried merging my layers and converting them to a smart object, but it still messed up colors/gradients.

Hmmm. Since you used similar colors in the logo as in the background, it may not be possible. perhaps you can add some of the glow into the background so that it will fill in the transparent areas of the logo.

Probably not the answer you were looking for, but…
