How do I resize an image without loosing clarity/quality

I am needing to resize an image I created in PS. Starting, its 786x696 pixels I need it to be 26x26, 56x56 and 112x112. All of the images other than 26x26 are good. I've tried different resizing, flattened my image, sharpened it etc and no matter what I do you cannot tell what it is at that size =(

I am exporting this for web and have chosen bicubic sharper hoping that would help and it hasn't either.

Suggestions?

26x26 pixels is such a low resolution that no down-sampling algorithm will yield a satisfactory result.

You will have to manually clean up the result pixel by pixel, or create one from scratch.

The website I am trying to put this image on has guidelines of "clear" images and only those three sizes of the same image need to be uploaded. From faces to any other type of pic throughout their website the images are clear, so despite it being a small image I guess I am having a hard time that all these other users/people are able to have clear 26x26 somehow?
