Edit the category view template so it shows a FIXED width div container. Space out the 3 columns evenly by adding margins to each side of the echo-script in the php. Keep in mind that the 3 columns are not actual columns. They are just created by the script echo-ing the categories and spacing them out. Once it reaches the end of the div container it starts a new line. There we go!

nope ;) it's here: components->com_k2->templates-> and then i forgot but it should be category view. Try to match the source code with the source in one of the php files in there. use firebug.
