Hi Nick,
what you do is perfectly OK. One of the advantages of SPM over some other
packages is that (except for statistics) you do not need to bother about
image orientations, voxel sizes etc. because SPM will compute coordinate
transforms between different slice orientations if necessary.
Yours,
Volkmar
