How do I resize an image without loosing clarity/quality

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?

I've moved your post from Using the Community to the Photoshop forum.

A few questions so we can better assist:

• What size (in pixels) was the image before you resized it multiple times?
• Did you create it or purchase it?
• What is your zoom level? It should be 100%.
• Do you have a copy of the image before you did so many things to this one?
