Hi, Mrinmayi-

OK, glad that is useful.

For the PyQt4: I hope you can still show the afni_proc.py output QC HTML---I really find it useful for seeing (most) all of the pieces of the analysis in one spot. The driver scripts in each results directory are useful, too (basically, that content became the core of the QC HTML). The benefit of using Conda is that you can make an environment in which PyQt4 exists, and then also one in which the other "normal" stuff (like matplotlib+numpy) exist, and you can switch between them. Part of this is possible because essentially every AFNI Python program runs in both Python 2.7 and 3.* (I hear you asking, "Which progs don't?" and the answer is meica.py and the meica.libs/tedana.py distributed in AFNI--those were written long ago, and the developer no longer updates them, so they just live in Python 2.7).

So, you could have:

# env for uber_subject
conda create -y -n py27_tiny_pyqt4     -c conda-forge       pyqt=4  python=2.7

# env for all other analyses
conda create -y      -n py37_afni_tiny    python=3.7  matplotlib numpy

... and then "conda activate py27_tiny_pyqt4" when you want to run uber_subject.py, and "conda activate py37_afni_tiny" (or have the latter be default) when you want to do everything else.

Re videos---we now have a very "shortest of short" introduction to preparing for an AFNI Bootcamp on FMRI---some notes about background/philosophy of data analysis, some intro GUI videos, and then some lectures on the basics of single subject analysis FMRI (GLM setup, etc.). I belieeeeve it clocks in at an easily digestible 2.5 hours of videos, so surely everyone will want to do that! It is here:

The attendees might find that useful for sharing with others, or for quick review.

Sounds like a great summer for Milwaukee: first the Bucks win the championship, and now an AFNI FMRI workshop! (Maybe you should invite Giannis to the workshop?)
