I want to link an image thumbnail to its node in view but I don't see any default image formats that do it.
I can't even create a custom file/image/media format that can let me link images to nodes in views.

I used to do it quite easily in Drupal 6 but haven't been able to figure out the setting to do it in Drupal 7.
Is this feature available in Drupal 7 anymore?

I found the answer: revert back to Drupal 6 :(

I'm about to jump out a window.

For the record, the "jump out window" solution does not work very well...

Here's how you do it:

1) Add a field to the view "Content: Link" and exclude it from display
2) Move the field so it occurs BEFORE the image in the list of fields in the view
3) Go to the image field and choose, under REWRITE RESULTS >> "Output this field as a link"
4) Scroll down to replacement patterns and now you will see the token option "[view_node] == Content: Link"
5) Scroll back up and place [view_node] in the "link path" field
6) Save
7) Step away from the window and breath a sigh of relief...
