Hello everyone,
I'm new to these forums but not new to photoshop. Ive been using photoshop for about a year and a half. Ive come across this problem tho that is making me feel very noobish. I'm trying to resize an image that isnt to small but is to big for a logo im desinging. Now im trying to resize this tv but keep its sharpnesss and keep it looking crisp. Now when i either press ctrl+T and shrink it to its size that i want it gets sort of blurry i guess i can say. And even if i do it the hard way by going into edit image and resize it from there it still gets blurry around the edges and isnt keeping its old form. So if anyone could help me out with this problem that would be awesome! Thanks in advance!

Is your logo rasterbased (not vector) with hard edges?

I believe so.
These are the images, the first one is the the normal size one and the secound one is the smaller version that is getting blured out.

Yeah you can get some transparancy problems when scaling down already small images. The antennas on the larger tv is to the tops only a pixel wide already, when you try to scale them down even further photoshop cant make em less then a pixel wide and responds with lowerin the opacity of the gray making it more white and you get that blured out you do not want. That goes for all edges. Id say that little tv is abit to detailed for its size however if you have it on a separate layer you could simply duplicate that layer to make the edges harder and the antennas more apparent then adjusting the transparancy of the 2nd layer untill you get some kind of optimal setting. I'd rekomend that you do create all logos using vectors just so you dont have to deal with thease kind of resizeing problems.

When resizing the logo in image > image size, you can try setting the resample method to bicubic sharper.

after using the image application such as photoshop to resize image, you can filter image like sharpening or deblurring to make it clear. how about this method?
