Eurobricks member Woody64 has shared his 1790 - 1815 Vignettes in the Pirate Forum.
This particular one caught my eye as I love when paintings of history are recreated in Lego! This scene from the battle of Aspern-Essling was recreated with the help of some custom headgear.
In May of 1809 Napoleon attempted to cross the Danube near Vienna but was driven back by the Austrians under Archduke Charles's command. This battle was significant as Napoleon had not been defeated in over a decade. Unfortunately for the Archduke Napoleon was able to withdraw the majority of forces so it was never declared a decicive victory.
So enough of the history lesson go check out the rest of his vignettes post haste!
Star Wars Figbarf
Flickr user Adam Dodge has posted this creative picture of pirate figures meant to represent characters from the Star Wars universe. It's a great idea and well executed, as any Star Wars fan should be able to identify who the figures represent. He has incorporated pieces from classic pirates all the way to pieces from Pirates of the Caribbean and even other themes. If you check out his photostream he also has some other great creations.

Fancy New Pirate Figures are Coming!
We may be missing a pirate theme this year, but LEGO is throwing us a bone with some new minifigures! Series 8 in the Collectible Minifigures line has some amazingly detailed figures for pirate theme lovers. We get the newly designed Pirate Captain complete with a pearl gold saber and hook, in addition to a highly detailed Conquistador with a pearl gold helmet and printed armor as well as printed legs.
Discuss Series 8 Minifgures in the forum.
3 vs. Many
Not all Pirates wear rags and sail on ships. Some come in a more sophisticated form. Musketeers are just those men. Men of class but also of skill, they enjoy fine wine, and can drop your pants with a swing of their blade. I actually feel sorry for the incoming group of Cardinal Guards.

A beautiful elegant ship!
Something new has appeared on the seas, a beautiful elegant ship! It is a fantastical ship of her majesty Queen Beatrix from Brickland! It is a ship to travel short distances, and she is very fast and agile. With a beautiful figurehead and many other nice features this ship is unique in it's kind!
