[Bug 838676] Re: [installer] "Choos a picture" screen too narrow

The bug isn't that it needs to have three columns, the bug is that it
looks like it's trying to have three columns. I.e. the excessive white
space makes it look like something in the layout is broken. Just
increasing the padding between the columns would probably be
sufficient.

Bug description:
  The new (in Oneiric) "Choose a picture" screen from the installer
  shows a live preview from the webcam as well as some pre-defined icons
  lined up on a grid.

  Expected: Either two columns of icons with less white space around them, or three columns of icons.
