Is there a simple way for me to configure a base Windows 7 image, configure the desktop the way I want it to look, perform a sysprep without OOBE mode, in order to keep the look and feel within the image, and then copy that image to my WDS server? I'm a previous Windows 2003 WDS user, so the new WDS/MDT method is completely new to me.

Hi there.
The way that you capture a Windows system is to boot up into WinPE and run ImageX. You'll find loads of detail on this here:
The Windows Automated Installation Kit - http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=5753. This will allow you to work on basic images and to manipulate installations through a User Interface.
Microsoft Deployment Toolkit http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/solutionaccelerators/dd407791. This is a server side solution which allows you to to use a simple "Task Sequence" to perform many configuration steps. You can even attach this to a SQL database which will allow you to make on the fly customisations.
System Center Configuration Manager http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/systemcenter/cm/bb507744. This is an enterprise based product which allows many management functions over a system including OS deployment.
WAIK functionality is leveraged in MDT. MDT functionality is leveraged in SCCM so what you do in one product largely translates into the next products.
Here's a really good EBook to get you started on Windows 7 deployment http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=12616
Hope this helps

The key word that you are looking for here is "capture".
With the capture task sequence you can achive that.

Don't forget to include the <copyprofile> in the unattend.xml which will move your settings to the default profile.
Look here for copy profile setup. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc748953(v=ws.10).aspx
