So what software are you using? In your other topic you said you'd let us know. Also it implies it has to be done with a camera. I guess in today's digital world you don't need a physical camera anymore.
Hi born2see.

I have tried the software which you can download, but it doesn't do a good enough job as this website does.

Website link which converts over your screenshot: http://tiltshiftmaker.com/

Take your screenshot, visit the website, upload it, tweak it, select your photo size, download it, and post it.

Here is another conversion.

I never saw his home in Gettysburg before until I was looking for screenhots to try to convert over.

Nice Home Norb.

actually it was more designed to be a general store, as it's quite a bit larger than a regular house. and also because it has his name on it.
