Hello Miranda, Having worked on several Sharepoint 2007 based internet facing websites myself, the one thing I've learned is that the biggest challenge is to get Sharepoint to output valid non–table–based HTML. All the rest should be quite easily solved with CSS. It really depends on how comfortable your developers are with working with Sharepoint. In my experience there are a lot of back-end developers doing front-end work that they're not qualified to do which makes them resort to table based layouts &c.
Good luck!
