Is this warning important? This is probably because you have limited field-of-view in your data, probably in the Z direction. > In the design setup, I have "BET brain extraction" selected, and > "main structural image" for registration is skull-stripped. > > 2.

You could try both, but either should be ok if your EPI is well calibrated in the same way as the structural.
