Very nice lightweight looking site. I prefer Design v1
A few things I like:
- Article titles, prefer v1 to v2
- View by day/week/month, etc looks nice
- Search bar and RSS layout are layed out nicely
- I like the rank numbering of articles.
Great logo!
A few things I'd change:
The top navigation is too busy as buttons. Consider using simple text links for Home/About/Contact.
The Submit Article button should live near the list of articles in the table listing. I'd place it somewhere near "Top 10 Articles"
The Google Ads don't need your artistic column. It draws too much attention away from your content. Also, it makes the ad space look really busy.
Change "Current Rating" to "Rating." One assumes that ratings are always current.
Too much text for the "published on, by, minutes ago". Simplify. Use fewer icons. I suggest something more like "By John Smith 53 minutes ago". Either show posted dat OR "minutes ago", but never both.
Nice work - I think you're close!

Spacing
I feel like if this line of text was shorter (floated to the right, and smaller) you would get better white space between posts
